I agree; lack of sunshine is no barrier to good photography. Some of my best have been in rainy weather. Very good work on this. I agree; lack of sunshine is no barrier to good photography.

The old Stevens Pass highway is certainly interesting. In the 80's it was used as a detour route when the west side of the pass was being rebuilt with new passing lanes and the 4 lanes above the hairpin turn. The one trip we made up it during the detour was quite interesting. Essentially the DOT had patched a few holes, fix a few washouts and painted a yellow stripe on. It certainly was nice to see the pass from another perspective. Thanks for reading the blog! I love old highways too though I don’t spend too much time with them.

I've done quite a bit of research on the Stevens Pass Highway (old roads and abandoned segments are my focus), but it's hard to not get sucked into the railroad history, which predates the old highway. I also dabble in photography - great shots, especially the last one. I've been hoping to grab some of my own around Seattle. I'm sort of new to the city and have been noticing all the great locations - Carkeek and Richmond Beach being my two favorites thus far.
