Yesterday was one of those fabulous Pacific Northwest days where you can see 100+ miles:
In my previous post "A Short Hop to the Brothers..." visibility was restricted by clouds. Now here is that mountain on a CAVU day:
Higher peak in the background is Mount Olympus. I am at 9500' here and near my Sport Pilot altitude limit so I didn't try to venture back there at least from this vantage point.
Heading around to get a look at the back side of the mountain:
This is the "back" west side:
There are some great small towns where living is good. This is little Allyn which lies on a finger of Puget Sound. There is a city dock to walk after you get a great Mexican dinner in town. Up on the hill behind the town are nice homes on a nine-holer:
Bremerton airport (PWT), my base, is a short distance away:
Yeah, it rains a lot here, but life is good.
