Pacific Northwest

After taking a few days for the time zone readjustment, I'm sorting through 80GB of photos from the Pacific Northwest. It's easy to take that many photos up there, everywhere you look is breathtaking. A week of traveling took me from Sacramento up the California coast, with a stop at Mossbrae Falls in the town of Dunsmuir, CA. I then crossed into Oregon, stopping in Eugene, OR, to see a friend of mine, and then continued up the Pacific Coast Highway before cutting through Portland to reach the Columbia Gorge. We spent three days in the Gorge, hiking to various creeks and waterfalls.

On Monday we headed back to the coast, making stops in Seal Rocks, Oceanside, Cape Kiwanda, and Hug Point, near Ecola State Park.

The highlight was the beauty of the Columbia Gorge, with its rich green foliage, wildflowers, and waterfalls flowing over moss covered rocks. I'll post photos as they are processed over the next few months.
