Washington Trip Report - part 20 - White Pass

These are the last of my photos from my drive across Washington on November 12th.

The closer I got to White Pass, the worse the weather got.

trees in the fog


This is the pass itself - not particularly exciting.

forested highway view


There should be bigger mountains visible in these photos, taken at Palisades Rocks Overlook, but instead there is fog.

trees and fog


The lichen with the red blobs on this tree is probably British Soldiers lichen.

Eventually my view turned into this.

not much visibility


And not too much later I was across the mountains and while there was less fog, there was still rain.

rainy wet Washington


Then I got to the interstate highway and drove north to my uncle's house in Lacey. I am not fond of driving on interstate highways, but sometimes it is the appropriate way to go.
