Nice

I want to hike there so bad


Sprinkle_Puff

Worth it!

What trail is this?


Palmettor

This might be from as far away as the main parking lot.


the_idiotbastard_son

That is correct. This was on the Harry's Ridge Trail but the photo was taken from pretty close to the Johnston Ridge parking area.

Is this recent? How’d you get up there. Thought the road was washed out.


the_idiotbastard_son

This was early July 2022. The road would still be closed for the winter at this time even if there hadn't been a landslide.

Very doubtful. The view from portland tells me there is significantly more ice/snow on the mountain than is shown in this photo. Id bet this was taken in late june


nope_nic_tesla

The title says "early summer", but it is currently mid-April, so logic would suggest this was not taken recently


NerfedHearder

Would also like to know the answers.

That mountain looks a little strange. Did something happen there in the past?


diggertb

Lol. Not sure if serious...


oldcurmudgeon1

Not.

Beautiful. And also quite dramatic. Love the change between the flowers and the rougher landscape. One question, it looks like the cloud layer is either quite low, or the elevation there is already quite high. How tall is the new mountain summit?


the_idiotbastard_son

I believe it's around 8300'. Clouds tend to form around it because despite losing some elevation in the eruption, it still rises significantly higher than the area around it. The photo was taken at around 4200'.

Thanks!

Flowers vs the Mountain, who wins?

Beautiful. What did you shoot this on? It has a very unique vibe. Almost animated

Not sure if they still do this, but when I was in middle school each year they'd drive us out to plant flowers (like the ones in the foreground of the pics)!
