Deception Creek Rapids

"...and the river bank sings of the waters of March, it the promise of life it's the joy in your heart" Antonio Carlo Jobim

 

He may have got the month wrong but the waterways in the Northwest are definitely "singing" as they overflow with the spring snow melt and and recent rains.

I spent several enjoyable hours exploring and photographing at Deception Creek Fall Recreation Area on US Route 2 near Stevens Pass.

 

Deception Creek crashes over a third right-angle drop and this time of year it has a huge volume, speed and force. The five kayakers I described in the previous image decide to bypass this rapids too.
