Almost 8,000 feet of pure BEAUTY! Gorgeous photos - I love the mountains & so wish I could live near them!
ReplyDeleteHappy Scenic Sunday!
I've always loved waiting for the mountains to be revealed as the misty clouds slowly drift away. Sometimes that doesn't happen for days at Olympic. Hope you soaked in the springs. Great capture Janie.
ReplyDeleteWow! You're really high up there. Beautiful scene. That peninsula is supposed to be one of the rainiest places in the U.S., but you lucked out and got wispy fog and clear skies!
ReplyDeleteOooh! Those are beautiful shots! I love when the clouds hover over the tops of mountains like that. Great captures!
ReplyDeleteThat is just gorgeous! Thanks for sharing it.
ReplyDeleteWhen I saw your title I thought your post would be of the foggy morning we had but nope, it was even better!
ReplyDeleteIt doesn't get much more beautiful than that, perfect photos.

What a marvelous sequence. It's mystical to see the mountains appear through the lifting mist. Thanks for these gorgeous pictures.
ReplyDeleteGreat photos. I was out there about 8 years ago, and was overwhelmed with immensity of it, and the rivers that ran off it, but most of all by the rain shadow on the east side of it. It was downright droughty in those areas.
ReplyDeleteGreat mountaipictures! Have a nice week//Eva
ReplyDeleteWonderful photos, it looks quite magical!
ReplyDeleteI'm glad you enjoyed Reading Lolita in Tehran, definitely one of best books I've read in a while.
