Imogene Lake in the Sawtooths. That pic was taken July 4th weekend! Still frozen over. It's only accessible by backpacking in. Was a favorite of my buddies and I. Part of the trail leading to Imogene. The bottom photo is Hells Roaring Lake which we pass on the way to Imogene.

Couple of shots of the Perrine Bridge over the Snake. (This isn't the original bridge) I.B. Perrine was the 'mastermind' behind turning the high desert into the 'Magic Valley' through irrigation. This is also one of, if not the most, jumped BASE structures. It is legal and there are always jumpers every weekend in the nice weather (and usually a couple fatalities a year).

Site of a plane crash near Loon Lake in central Idaho. Me and the buddies hiked to it one summer. You can probably zoom in to read the plaques...

MojoHand; Good evening to you sir, thanks for the photos of the fireweed looking plants and the falls too. In the spirit of falls, I'll repost a few BC falls shots and ask for forgiveness for the repost. Blanket Falls, Columbia River area,BC Wells Grey Park, BC Helmken Falls, Wells Grey Park, BC Forget which these are - Vancouver Island for sure though. Same falls further up I believe I do believe that's all I can post in one run, so I'll check in after I see if I can get our daughter's CRV fired up from being stored since last fall. All the best to you for the remainder of the week sir. Dwayne

Some cool 'hoodoo spires' waaay back In the middle of nowhere north central Idaho. Was on a solo backpacking trip. Saw a ton of moose including one calf and her mother that scared the crap out of me in the bushes! The old cemetery at Rooselvelt lake was cool. None of my photos turned out very well...should've just used the auto settings on the ol' Nikon!

Ok, time to head indoors for a bit. Evergreen Air & Space Museum in McMinnville, OR. Stopped in on a motorcycle trip with my bud (we were headed for the Oregon/Cali coast). I am a plane geek so I conned him into stopping. They had just opened the new wing. Pics don't do justice to the size of that Goose!

Wish I had a vid of the model 'Corn Cob' in action. Truly an impressive engine!

Ok, back outdoors... A few shots of the trip to the coast. These were taken along the North Cascade hwy. Not too far from Dwayne's (BC30Cal) AO. Absolutey gorgeous route. And ya don't even need a touring bike! (500+ miles a day on a sport bike...when I was younger!)

We went up to Lolo Pass on the MT/ID border, took Hwy 12 across ID (killer bike route!) and then all back roads up north to the Cascade Hwy, across WA. Hit Seattle, took a ferry, came down the coast of Oregon all the way to Redding before we cut back through CA/OR to get home (that was a mistake...SE Oregon is hideous!) Anyway, great trip even if we missed the Redwoods... That's all for now. I'll turn it back over to you guys..

All the best to you for the remainder of the week sir. Dwayne Thanks for the water pics, Dwayne! Waterfalls are never bad (reposted or not). As a kayaker I love the whitewater pics. Hope to get some more this summer with maybe some vids thrown in

MojoHand; Grand shots there for sure sir and thanks again for sharing them. We debated stopping at the McMinnville museum on the way by and didn't - so it's on our list for next time for sure now. A pika for you then for your efforts sir! Harlequin duck drake, same trip one valley west of us. Bull taking a bath? Mamma moose and calf just above our place - before the wolves moved in with a vengeance. Same hill up behind our place. Same, same - bear this time. As Mojo has done, I now pass the torch on to another. All the best to you all this fine spring evening. Dwayne
