Fall City area | And a drive through mountains | Washington State

 
This is Snoqualmie Falls - in the fall.  I was told that in the spring, that entire space between the trees would be totally full of water coming over the cliff.  It was quite impressive as it was, but I'm sure it would be amazing when it was larger.
 
 
We found a small gathering of elk in a meadow, but unfortunately, they weren't very close. 
 


This is one of the rivers that meet at the Snoqualmie Falls and you can see by the riverbank that it was low water when I was there.


This is an old railroad tunnel.

 
We took a road trip through the mountainous areas - the scenery was breathtaking.  It was early October, but there was still snow on the peaks.

 






This footbridge is part of a State Park.
 
 
There are many rivers in the Fall City area and they seem quite calm right now.  By the time spring comes, they will be raging.
 


 


 
Moss decorates most trees in the wooded areas, growing conditions are quite good.
  

The Rockies!
