Snoqualmie Pass March 2009

Last Sunday we took a drive up to the pass via I 90. The sun was shining in Snoqualmie and 20 miles away it was snowing!

The pass got 16 inches the night before.
The pictures would have been outstanding with a blue sky but.................
this will have to do!

This is one of many ski slopes covered with skiiers and snowboarders!
You can see every seat on the lift is full!

The scenery on the side roads (if plowed) was breathtaking!!!

This is the road we took to get to Denny Peak Trail in the sumer.

It is our favorite hike! But you can't even get close to it now.

So we just drove around where we found a road that had a single lane plowed, hoping we didn't meet a car!

What a sight!

Looking into the woods around a giant Douglas Fir was amazing!

The pictures don't do these sights justice. Reality is the best!

There is a creek under the snow!

Mother Nature is amazing!

Click on the photos to enlarge and you will see the detail.

Enjoy the scenery!!
