Liberty Bell and the Early Winter Spires, June 2015


Ever since my first visit to Washington Pass, I've wanted to return and get an acceptable photograph of Liberty Bell and the Early Winter Spires.   I've never been happy with the afternoon photographs I've taken because they are taken looking west (in summer) and the angle of the sun casts shadows on the peaks (at best). Due to the distance from Seattle, you either have to get up very early or stay overnight somewhere close to Washington Pass.  Some 16 years after my first visit, I finally scheduled an overnight stay in Mazama, Washington, and the weather (finally) cooperated.  

To be honest, I'm not really seeing why the peak on the right is called "Liberty Bell" but the peak is beautiful all the same.
