Stuck Atop Cascade Summit

Cascade Summit, OR

Yesterday I mentioned being stuck for a while atop a mountain pass in the Cascades while transiting in a Amtrak train. Here is another view, plus below a shot of the trees as we passed. What an incrredible winter wonderland!

Wow Robin, very impressive. Did you climb a tree to get the pick of the engine? Tha's such a great shot!

Very nice photo Robin. Was this trip to Oregon and Washington part of a package, or just a commute to visit someone. I would really love to take a long train trip, especially one like this.

This is wonderful, Robin, and I'll admit to being a little bit envious...try to stay warm, though!

so beautiful... perhaps not when you are in the thick of it.

I do hope your blood is thick enough for all this snow and that you have your long johns with you. Beautiful images, especially the trees.

Just gorgeous, Robin.

Did you help push?

Wonderful winter image. It has a train, it has snow, what else could one want? GMV... (Ooops!)

Great images

Amazing shot Robin.
Always blows my mind to leave dry country and then start climbing to find such a huge change in conditions.
No wonder animals leave the high country in the winter to seek food at the lower levels.
Hope you were bundled up all nice and warm.....
