#ForestFriday On a Tuesday (Actually, meant for Monday; but yesterday was too chaotic.) Week Two Of Summer — Redwoods Such an amazing tree. Plus, I learned about "goose pens." Props to Brymo for sharing the photo and story. Win, Win. Happy Trails, Chris ✌️ #Redwoods l #NorternCalifornia l #ECK

Settlers in redwood country used these hollow, fire scarred trees to keep their poultry. They called them “goose pens” Occidental, California #photography #redwoods

A redwood tree that has been hollowed out over the years by fire and fungi

#ForestFriday On a Sunday Week Two Of Summer — Redwoods The first week with the North Cascades was stellar. Learned so much about the area between my hometowns of Bellingham & Seattle. Great hikes galore. Stoked for the Redwoods. Click below for a glimpse. Happy Trails, Chris ✌️ #Redwoods l #ECK

Missed #forestfriday because was flying East to West for some time in the REDWOODS - little walk in the woods, looking back to #eureka! (Human shown for scale since i am not good enough to convey by photos alone…) #redwood #humboldt

#ForestFriday On a Saturday (Should have been on the actual Forest Friday. But, it was my final day of slacking off.) Week One Of Summer — The North Cascades Glacier Peak is a truly remote PNW volcano. More than 30 miles from trailhead to summit & back. Happy Trails, Chris✌️ #NorthCascades l #ECK

Glacier Peak, the least seen of the Cascade volcanos, rises above valleys where smoke from nearby fires has settled. A hiker looks on, and is dwarfed by the scene. #landscapephotography #mountains

#ForestFriday On a Saturday (And, should have been on Wednesday; but I slacked off.) Week One Of Summer — The North Cascades I fell Way Behind on my daily posts. Busy. Tired. Life. In a bit of a mailaise. Catching up fast. Here are 4 NC photos. Happy Trails, Chris ✌️ #NorthCascades l #ECK l #PNW

#ForestFriday On a Tuesday Week One Of Summer — The North Cascades I grew up in Bellingham. Thought it was odd that I had never been to Gorge Dam since it's in Whatcom County. Turns out the drive is 84 miles. Along scenic State Route 20. Time For A Road Trip, Chris ✌️ #NorthCascades l #ECK l #PNW

The waterfall at the Gorge Dam, along the Skagit River, in the North Cascades, Washington #WaterfallWednesday #Waterfalls #Nature #Mountains #Cascades #Photography #Forest #Scape #PNW

A waterfall coming out of a dam in the middle of a forest. There is a snow capped mountain the background, and hills covered with trees. There are some yellowed plants in the foreground, a light sky above, and sun flares in the upper left hand corner of the image.

#ForestFriday On a Monday Week One Of Summer — The North Cascades Ex-parrot started the journey with a view from Mount Dickerman. A hop, skip and a jump away: Jeremy inspires with this glimpse of Big Four Mountain. I need to get up there. Soon! Happy Trails, Chris✌️ #NorthCascades l #ECK l #PNW

I'm a bit late to #ForestFriday, but it was an absolutely splendid day in the Mount Baker-Snoqualmie National Forest today. 🌲🏔️ #pnw #scape #photography #nature #forest #landscape #landscapephotography #nationalforest #cascades #washington

Moss-covered firs and a snag lean into frame, their trunks filling the foreground while sharp-ridged Big Four Mountain holds the center distance with snow still clinging to its upper face, and a waterfall tracing one of its couloirs.

#ForestFriday On a Sunday Week One Of Summer — The North Cascades My daily "I want to hike here" spring project is finito. New project: Highlight a different area each week. 🔹13 weeks 🔹13 amazing places View from Mount Dickerman kicks us off. Happy Trails, Chris ✌️ #NorthCascades l #ECK l #PNW

#ForestFriday On a Saturday Spring — Day 93 I Want To Hike Here The final day of spring brings my final related daily post. It was a fun & productive project. Going out with a bang. A stellar SLO photo by Alina. There would be no FF without her support & tireless efforts. Happy Trails ✌️ -Chris

Happy Earth Day all! Let's all be kind to Mother Earth and help her thrive. 🌱🌳🌲💚🌊 #ECK #EarthDay #FogBow #LandscapePhotography #WestCoastKin #HIking #SLO #MotherNature

This photo was taken from Cerro San Luis mountain looking out at a huge fogbow stretching from Los Osos to Bishop Peak in San Luis Obispo. The sky is otherwise blue and the earth is green. There is a clump of clouds right where the fogbow ends at Bishop Peak.
