Location: Placerville, CA.... You know, the only place on Highway 50 between Sacramento and Lake Tahoe the you find signal lights. Above the fog most of the time and I can see the stars of the Milky Way 8 out of 10 nights. Kinda cool.....

Success!
Subtle to the eye but unmistakable waves of otherworldly lights undulating... stunning!
It was sooo clear I could see climbers headlamps on Shuksan and Mt. Baker.

Gave me an extra kick since my Son and 3 buddies just summited Mt Baker about a month ago.












Wow!! Truly amazing and beautiful!!
