Mt. Hood Timberline Trail - Day 2
I've finally found a few moments on this beautiful Saturday morning to post some more Timberline Trail pics... Day 2! If I remember correctly we did a LOT of hiking this day (set up camp in the dark) so I did more shooting with the snapshot camera than my pro camera.
Anyway onto the photos!
Beautiful Indian Paintbrush wildflowers with Mt. Hood in the background-
A gorgeous spring fed stream in the morning hours, Mt. Hood in the background of course-
Mt. Hood-
Mt. Hood and wildflowers-
Paradise Branch Canyon-
Some nice waterfalls down in Paradise Branch Canyon too-
Ramona Falls-

Glacier melt off Mt. Hood-

A different angle view of Hood that I had never seen, doesn't even look like the same mountain!
This was a gorgeous viewpoint after a very steep climb up from the canyon-
Colin and Kristin-
Last light on Mt. Hood, there was two deer in the field in front of me... such a beautiful sight!
Another gorgeous sunset-
Stars-
Long exposure of the stars-
OK.... Lindsey and I are both so confused about what this is... because we saw the thing moving quite rapidly before I took this photo. It could have been our eyes playing tricks on us... but still. It's sooo bright and I've never seen a star or planet that bright. It's not a plane either. UFO???
Here are the snapshots from the day.
Waking up in the morning, Lindsey and I shared a tent-
Linz waking up... morning face-
We randomly ran into a good friend of ours Holly, I had no idea she was out there hiking too!
She hid behind a rock and jumped out to scare Colin and Lindsey-
Colin snapping some pics-
Lunch break-
Lindsey.... ummm... not sure what she's doing here?
One of my favorite things was wild berries everywhere!!! They are sooo good! These are huckleberries (they look like blueberries in the photo)-
Huckleberries, so good and healthy!
Wild raspberry-
Salmonberry-
Thimbleberry, one of the best tasting berries I've ever had!
Kristin, Colin and Lindsey-
This is what it looks like when you take a photo inside fire (not recommended)-
Lindsey cookin up some curry for dinner!
Lindsey gets cold very easily, so this is what she looks like every night in bed-
Thats it for day 2.... day 3 has the best photos from the trip so stay tuned!

staying tuned. and for all your fan clubs' information, I was trying to remove loads of sand from my shorts without taking my shoes off. it didn't work.
Nice star and water fall shots! Sounds like an exciting trip! Those wild berry shots make my mouth water :) Yum!
Amazing photos as always Blaine. Mt. Hood looks beautiful. I wish I had seen the mountain in the summer when I lived in PDX. Hope you're well.
Could the bright light in the sky be the space station?
