That’s a cool TR, even cooler to go by boat for drinking a beer! Thanks for sharing.

She started early, had fun camping, hiking, rock climbing, snowboarding, etc…but when she turned 13, her world changed a bit — I guess teenagers do only what their friends do and with them together…So there is hope, because she still talks about all those things, but rarely goes with Mom or Dad…I am patient and I bet it will come back.

Nice! – now just tell me your secret getting your teenage girl out there camping and schlepping a pack, with Dad only (even with Mom & Dad). I’m still trying to find ways to convince mine.

All my respects! Congrats on climbing the big 5, and great TR’s

Nice TR, thanks for posting the pictures…where did all the snow go? Looked different up there three weeks ago. I was on Snowdome the same day, while relaxing in the midday sun on Cloud Cap Inn’s sun deck I have seen the Helicopter hovering for a while just above the Way’east face, wondering what happened. Good decision to skip the summit in such…[Read more]

That is cool – greetings to JP from the PNW volcanoes.

Thanks for sharing the pictures

Oregon rocks! Super photographs.

the PNW season is insane this year…pow, pow, pow…and snoslut is right it’s almost April and the white stuff is coming down at it’s best…Mt. Hood is hitting the 200″ mark right now.

I do love the B&W – cool scenery!

Ok gang…rate my helmet cam

my monitor was bouncing around on my desk… 😉

I think if you zoom in on the rider and getting closer to the subject it’s much better even with the shake, if you zoom out and have all the trees and scenery in a wide angle frame, it’ very bouncy and nervous. But that’s just me.

BTW those are some nice…[Read more]

Very nice pictures, and superior lighting in the captures. Is that natural light in your first few images or did you use a grad ND filter.

Guys, thanks for the comments…our only splitboarder that day had other plans, he really missed out on something.

It was quiet impressive skiing down to the bottom of that waterfall, the constant noise from falling water created a special touch to the entire scenery.

Nice one….and good to see some sunshine, wasn’t sure that fire ball is still up there.

I don’t want to complain about the weather here in the PNW but we are getting hammered by never ending storms with wind and dark gray clouds dumping feets of snow since mid December , maybe 3 clear days in the past 5 weeks.

cool thread…

Oregon cascades…sorry skier’s tracks

I grew up taking shots with my Nikon SLR film camera, I have been looking at the D40 and D80 myself, however for me this is most likely next season. It seems every time I bring up Nikon in a room, about 15 canon users start ranting about the rebel. How would you say the Nikon compares to the canons?

If someone knows how to “make”…[Read more]

That indeed looks tasty.

On exactly how many of those photos did you use the split ND grad filters? The highway one is obv.

Sweet pic btw

The ND split was used on the following pics – #2, #5, #6 & #7 – you are right the highway is more the case for a soft stop ND.

…where are all the other photographer’s and snapshooter’s fall color posts?? keep them…[Read more]
