Hoods Down Classics
View allAll Photos Tagged HOOD,
Mount Hood, called Wy'east by the Multnomah tribe, is a potentially active stratovolcano in the Cascade Volcanic Arc of northern Oregon. It is the highest point in Oregon, 11,249 ft (3,429 m), and the fourth highest in the Cascade Range.
Something we folks that live within the shadows of the Cascades keep in mind:
Mt. Hood is considered the Oregon volcano most likely to erupt, though based on its history, an explosive eruption is unlikely. Still, the odds of an eruption in the next 30 years are estimated at between 3 and 7 percent, so the U.S. Geological Survey characterizes it as "potentially active." Mt. St. Helens comes to mind...
Regardless I'm looking forward to spending some time at Mt. Hood's bigger brother, Mt. Rainier, this summer.

I liked this shot because the sun was behind them and it illuminated the splash of the Hooded Mergansers footsteps as they were taking off. Bucks County PA.
Mt Hood can be seen everywhere unlike my last image of Hood nested in Evergreen trees this is another side seen from the vast Orchards on our visit to the town of Hood River..the landscapes were gorgeous & all those fruit trees, can't wait til harvest.
Thanks for your visit, have a wonderful day!

There were countless rhododendron blooms on my hike in the Mount Hood wilderness last weekend. It was hard to choose just one photo of them so I may post more. This one is my favorite I think. The light was just right and some cool colors in the bokeh of the forest behind them was pleasant.

We left CLNP in the south and drove to Hood River up north.

Late fall when most of the snow pack has melted leaving Mt. Hood pretty much bare bones..no white coat until it snowed 24" that night The wondrous part is the evergreen forest stays green all year.
Thank you for your visit and comments, appreciate it!
Hood ornament detail of the "Satis" Rolls-Royce Phantom II. This is not the typical Rolls-Royce "Emily" figure, but some winged runner, what I believe to be the Greek God Hermes, protector of traffic, travelers and magic.

I call this image “THE HOOD”
This is a “just for fun” composite image. The building is on Savannah’s Waterfront. It houses a hotel and shops …. the entrance is on the other side of the building facing East Bay Street in the heart of Old Savannah.
The images in the windows, on the balconies, and the building were placed there by the artist to create the feel of an old “Hood” (neighborhood).
A fine day for snowshoeing turned into and excellent day for Mount Hood spotting. Look close and you might see a few climbers.

2 versions today, Mt Hood at sunrise in autumn, I hope everyone is having a great weekend. Happy holidays in advance.
Looking south over lush farms and orchards at Mt. Hood in the distance. A very special city/area in the Columbia River Gorge.
"Hood River first experienced a boom in tourism after being discovered as a site for windsurfing, and more recently kiteboarding. Hood River County also has some of the best kayaking, mountain biking, downhill and Nordic skiing, and hiking areas in the United States.
Situated in the Columbia Gorge, and surrounded by fields, orchards, vineyards, and at the foot of Mount Hood, Hood River is a popular tourist destination.
All of these factors have led to coverage and acclaim in publications such as National Geographic Adventure, Sunset, Outside, Backpacker, Smithsonian, the New York Times travel section, and others. Hood River has received numerous awards from national magazines, such as "coolest small town" to "fifth best ski-town in America." Most recently, Hood River was featured on CNN as one of "11 great riverfront towns" in the United States." Wiki
I'd love to live here.
Happy Friday!
So many iconic volcanic mountains in the Pacific NW. Mt. Hood is one of the most loved, photographed and admired. Shot taken at Hood River.

Welcome to the first day of summer (or winter)!
The last confirmed eruption of Mt. Hood was in 1865-1866.
If you really look at the image - you get a sense of how big this mountain really is. Look at the distance and the amount of trees between my vantage point and the mountain itself.
Someday I'd love to hike on this mountain. Kind of a bucket list item for me.

I was wandering the back roads of the Fraser Valley when I came upon some old cars. They sat by the roadside, rusting away a little more each day. I’m definitely not a “car guy” but regardless I decided to stop and see if there was a photograph here. My initial reaction was that they were just some old junkers. The name plate was long gone so I’m not sure make of car used this hood ornament. Regardless I like the futuristic look.
