Reply to Snoquemie pass for a new snow driver? by Tandey

We just did this for the first time this week. The pass was really clear and safe. We're from Texas and just moved to Washington this summer. Watch the WSDOT page for updates.

I have lots of colleagues that have done this, yes. But you can make a lot more than that with a bit of experience and continued investment.

You'd probably prefer a city like Ellensburg better then, not gloomy in the winter, no rain, sunny arid landscape, but weather still more temperate than the actual Washington desert.

I haven't been up there in a long long time (since the 1980's) so maybe those steam caves are still there? That would be something. I sort of suspect though that it was the furious steam that came out between 1975 and 1985 that sustained the caves. Anyways beautiful mountain, one of my favorites. I've been on top 4 times :). In fact, it was my very first major glaciated peak.

That is cool to know, I didn't know that. The next time I'm on that ferry, I'm going to look :). Thanks.

Ehh some cities have tried putting restrictions on airbnb and found it didn't have as much as an impact as they thought. Mostly it's more of a euro city problem, seattle isn't popular enough of a tourist city to have much of an effect.

I live near Mt Baker. It is still venting. When atmospheric conditions are right, I can see the steam condensing into wispy clouds rising from Sherman Crater, from as far away as Bellingham. It’s beautiful and a reminder that Mt Baker is still thermally active. Thankfully, it is also still seismically quiet.

Battle Ground Lake/State Park is a Maar volcano and Beacon Rock/SP is a volcanic plug. Both are part of the Boring volcanic field.

Rainy Lake is easy to access. In May and June the snow melt makes for some beautiful waterfalls over the cliffs above the lake.

I thought I saw on the news or something that Glacier Peak may actually be the most dangerous but Ranier makes total sense

I like it!! Nice work! Tumtum Mountain is another small cone volcano near Yacolt that is quite unknown. I didn't know about the field near Bellingham!
