This is the small church of Hampersberg, located in a small forest near my hometown. In this forest the last battle of knights was foughten back in 1322. Between Ludwig dem Bayern and Friedrich den Schönen. If you want to know more, you can read it here (in german): Schlacht bei Mühldorf
Got this panorama near Kosmos, Washington. The hill that's just about centered in the background is Dog Mountain, a popular place to launch hang gliders.
Doc sent his drone (DJI Mavic Air) up to capture this photo. Here you see the south shoreline of Kluane Lake, with the Alaska Highway to the extreme right.
Doc and I love the Kluane Lake area in the Yukon. Sheep dot the mountainsides, while grizzly bears wander the shoreline, and the surrounding hills. The original path of the Alaska Highway, ( or "Alcan Highway" as it was called when we first traveled over it 43 years ago.) - hugged the very edge of the lake. It has since been moved and improved - so you no longer feel that you might just end up in the water should you take you eyes off of the road for just a second or two. We have traveled around this majestic lake in all seasons - and find it captivating year around. 😊
*(Kluane Lake is located in the southwest area of the Yukon. It is the largest lake contained entirely within Yukon at approximately 408 km², and 81 km long. Until 2016, Kluane Lake was fed by the A'ay Chu, which was composed of meltwater from the Kaskawulsh Glacier, located within Kluane National Park. It drains into the Kluane River, whose waters flow into the Donjek River, White River, Yukon River, and eventually the Bering Sea. The lake has a high density of large-bodied lake trout and whitefish and is known for its fishing.)
Accessible from NF 26, Ryan Lake was hit by the 1980 eruption from Mount St. Helens. Much of the area was open to salvage logging operations afterward, but the lake itself was left as it was, to recover naturally.
While looking at East Canyon Creek Falls, I looked a little farther upstream and found this waterfall where Tule Creek empties into East Canyon Creek. There wasn't any reference to it on the Northwest Waterfall Survey, but the upper part of the creek seems to be known to canyoneers, here: ropewiki.com/Tule_Canyon_(South_Cascades)
