And, most importantly, winter has come to the Pacific Northwest! The past two weeks have seen a number of storms from the Gulf of Alaska dump quite a bit of snow on the Cascades & northern Rockies. A good early ski season is very good news for all the ski areas that got hammered by last year's mild winter. Timberline, Mt. Baker, and Crystal Mountain are already open; Mt. Hood Meadows, Snoqualmie, and Steven's Pass are all opening this weekend.

Nice pics Sam :)
Great pics! Kalispell...I'm jealous! I love that overnight. Did you manage to make it over to Moose's Saloon? Great place if you haven't been.
Geez Sam, can't they send you to somewhere like Fresno or Chico?! I have this awful urge now to fly the 172 to Kalispell... :-)
Ooh I love tail shots - very nice!! =)
Here it's opposite -we are getting summer and all the lovely thunderstorm-related delays!! :p
