Overnight trip to Orcas Island in the gorgeous San Juan Islands back in 08'
Only a little over an hour to the ferry dock from where we live, I need to go more often!    Views from Mt. Constitution, at 2,398' it's highest point in the San Juan Islands and the second highest mountain on an ocean island in the contiguous 48 states.  My mob on top of the Stone tower, on top of Mt. Constitution  10,781' Mt Baker  14,410' Mt Rainier  Alien life forms abound under the rocks  Rock be gone!  No deer or human types were injured during this encounter

 Bixby Bridge how you usually see it  The bridge at sunrise - but from the east  Camping with the redwoods     Time to relax on the beach. I was considerate of others, no one seemed to notice, but I sure noticed the ganja, so there's that...  Friendly resident of Ragged Point

Byron, you often make me thirsty!
Finished up doing a renovation on our kitchen- everything except the cabinets and the refrigerator since it's still working fine. I've been itching to get up Northeast to see what snow conditions are like where I have been doing early season overnight backpacking trips for many years now. Getting less willing to camp on snow as time goes on. Good news, snow is pretty much gone where I want to camp. North Cascades highway is still closed, I'm sure the assessment and reopening are about to commence. Well OK, guess I'll stop and hike down to the lake then  Just a wee bit of snow/ice in the shadowy areas  First view of Ross, 80' down prepped for run off refill  Dang, that would be very fun since it's got a Merc 115 hanging off the back. Named after a local peak which was name for an early settler and his wife's Sourdough bread.  Ross Lake Resort in winter mode. The trail I want to hike runs up above tree line a couple hundred feet and North a few more miles... looks snow free!  Oh good! the mountains are still hanging around  View from what is usually 30' underwater  Love PNW trails  Sourdough mountain

So, two weeks worth of diesel...I have tried many other methods, but five gallon cans work best here. All off road gas so no taxes.
 I leave the gate down...no one tailgates

Off road Diesel has a red dye and stains your fuel lines. If'n you're suspected of avoiding fuel taxes you be busted....

The diesel is for tractors and mowers only. This time of year I go through a lot of diesel.
