Okanagan National Forest in late November. The first snow storm of the season blankets the tall firs that dwell on each side of Washington Pass. It's all quiet as the sounds are muffled by the heavy snow. Soon Highway 20 will close and the forest will return to complete wilderness for a few months.

It's a late winter afternoon on Lake Wenatchee and Emerald Island in the Washington Cascades. The fading light casts a blue hue on a serene scene, A massive storm hit the mountains only a few days blanketing the lakeshore with feet of fresh snow. Kids played on the beach earlier that day and created small iceberg-like sculptures that land themselves to a nice foreground. Multicolored stones line the bottom of the lake. They are visible in the clear icy water. No polarizer filter necessary. This wonderland is only 2 hours west of Seattle on Highway 2, and a favorite place.
