Snow at Snoqualmie Pass

This was originally going to be a scouting trip in preparation for a major snowfall predicted for the next day...but, when I arrived and found the snow already falling (and the next day's storm bringing a winter storm warning and likely pass closures), I had no choice but to get out in my decidedly-not-ready-for-winter-weather clothing and grab some shots while I had the chance.



As I did with last month's sunset with lenticular clouds over Mount Rainier, I vlogged this shoot.



NOTE: I am hoping to make this a regular series over the next year, so, if you would like to check it out and provide me with constructive criticism (here, rather than in the YouTube comments section), I would appreciate it. For reference, NON-constructive criticism would include "get better equipment than your smartphone" (I intend to), "slow down and speak more clearly" (I already realize I need to), and "get someone other than that ugly fat old guy to host it" (sorry, but there's really not much I can do about that). And also, as I believe you are now legally-required to say on YouTube, "if you enjoyed it, be sure to 'like' and 'subscribe'!"

It's not that it's so high it just is a SOB in bad weather. Staying on this side of the Cascades until Spring!!

Washington is my home state, been over all the passes since I was a small girl, it was lovely to see how it looks today.
I really like your work, esp. because you are up there sharing pics of areas I knew so well.
Sweet nostalgia.

And...very nice to "meet" you!
