We just finished off a two-week camping trip in the #HighCascades in Oregon. It's the area surrounding and including #CraterLake. A thread:
It was nice!
Dawn and I are spoiled by playing in the North Cascades, BC's Coast Mountains the Kananaskis and the Rockies though so the more gentle rolling mountains of the area were less engaging then we were used to.
WatchDuty seeking someone to help fill in an ADSB hole in Oregon. If you are here they want to send you a receiver you can plug into your Internet (not sure if there's good Internet up there, however). #oregon#adsb#wildfires#CraterLake
Differential weathering of volcanic tuff at The Pinnacles area at Crater Lake. Mazama Ash deposits hundreds of meters in thickness have slightly different secondary mineralization and some have cap stones atop the spires that stand in relief…slightly shielding the weakly altered tuff below them.
Although an apron of ash deposits flank the volcano in all directions, this is the only place such deposits have formed in such dramatic display.
