Mount Hunter or Begguya is a mountain in Denali National Park in Alaska. It is approximately eight miles (13 km) south of Denali, the highest peak in North America. "Begguya" means "Child of Denali" in the Dena'ina language. Mount Hunter is the third-highest major peak in the Alaska Range.
Despite being much lower in elevation than Denali Mount Hunter is a more difficult climb, due to its steep faces and corniced ridges; it also sees far less traffic than its larger neighbor.

Mt. Robson (3,954 m = 12,972 ft), is also known as "Cloud Cap Mountain" and by climbers as the "Great White Fright."
With 2,975 m (9,760 ft) elevation gain from the valley floor below it is a difficult challenge for those brave enough to climb it.
One of many remarkable peaks of the Canadian Rockies.
Happy Friday!
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.

Every year we take a trip to the North Cascade Mountains to visit Mt. Shuksan, both for the fall colors and for the reflections.
It's never the same, and it never gets boring.
This time when we were there, the colors were nice, But I wished there had been some nice, puffy clouds in the blue sky.
Still, I was not disappointed with the view!

The best spot on the drive up to Mt. Norquay is the large turnout that overlooks the town of Banff. From here you can see Banff town, the Bow Valley, Vermilion Lakes, Sulphur Mountain and Mount Rundle. You may even spot big horn sheep on your journey, or sit back in the iconic Parks Canada red chairs.
Although many of the trails were closed in several parks, we were gifted with this moody view of Mt. Robson as we drove by along the highway. It would have been nice to have the lake in the foreground. However, it was magnificent to see this mountain rise up ahead of us as we drove closer. I was able to wait long enough to get that high peak just visible before it was hidden in the clouds again.

Mount Sanford (16,237 ft, 4,949 m) is an ice-covered volcano. It is the farthest north and most visible mountain of the Wrangell Range, its icy dome towering south of the Tok Cut-Off Highway, where I took this shot. Mt. Sanford is the sixth highest mountain in the United States and the third highest volcano behind Mount Bona and Mount Blackburn.
Much to love in Alaska!

Here was Mt. Kitayokodake, North Yatsugatake in Japan.

We went up the Mt. Baker National Recreation Area yesterday. Sadly, there was a lot of smoke from nearby wildfires. The smoke haze damaged the beautiful views and made it hard to breath at times. This is 9,131 foot Mt. Shuksan reflected in Picture Lake. Zoom in to see a group of 6 adults, 2 children on the far side of the lake, right middle.
Kalmia latifolia, commonly called mountain laurel, calico-bush, or spoonwood, is a broadleaved evergreen shrub in the heather family, Ericaceae, that is native to the eastern United States.
I saw another color of such flowers today, glad I took a shot.

thru the airplane window. I always like getting a good view of St Helens when flying to Seattle from Anchorage. Always amazes me the devastation caused when she blew
The was taken with my iPhone and I zoomed in with it quite a bit and the effect I thought ended up being kind of cool, sort of like a watercolor look
Mt. Walker, located in the Olympic National Forest, is the only peak facing Puget Sound that has a road to its summit. It is densely covered with 100 year-old Douglas-fir trees and Native Pacific rhododendrons. The south viewpoint is at an elevation 2805 feet.
The Hood Canal and the nearer Dabob and Quilcene Bays are the waterways in the foreground and Puget Sound is in the distance. Seattle, 28 miles away, is faintly visible at the horizon
Mt Rainier National Park, Washington, framed by clouds welling up in the valley and the ever present trees from the Sunrise access point.
Joy and I had the opportunity to spend 20 days exploring Olympic and Rainier National Parks and the Oregon coast. The road trip covered 4000 miles. Coming from the brown of southern California, the intensity of the GREEN in the temperate rain forests wad almost overwhelming. The weather was tough (it is a RAIN forest!) and the light challenging, but it was a magnificent trip. I hope you enjoy some of the shots
