Still a beautiful pic!

We haven’t been able to see much of the cascades for the last week or so over here. Usually have a really nice view of them from the valley. Can’t imagine what it’s like over there.

" In today's instant gratification society, more and more pressure revolves around success and the measurement of one's prowess as a hunter by inches on a score chart or field photos produced on social media. Don't fall into the trap. Hunting is-and always will be- about the hunt, the adventure, the views, and time spent with close friends and family. " Ryan Hatfield

Visibility here is way less than 300 yards.  Sucks......but appears this is the new norm.  Wenatchee's old slogan....."300 Days of sunshine."  New slogan...."200 days of sunshine and 100 days of smoke."

Fires from BC. Check out http://cliffmass.blogspot.com/, I really like his scientific approach.

Lived here for almost 48 years and Ive never seen anything like this. I'm all about "manning up" when it comes to weather but this is just nuts. My poor neighbor who has COPD has been on oxygen for the last 2 weeks. Poor guy.
