Snowshoeing Near Mt. St. Helens
By Matthew Farnell
Jeff, Jeremiah, Ruth, and I had a great day snowshoeing near Mt. St.
Helens. It was a perfectly clear, sunny day, with some fresh snow from a few days earlier. The only bummer of the day was getting a ticket (see previous post). Enjoy the pictures!
We got an early start which made for some nice shadows on the snow.

Getting closer to the mountain. I really want to climb it some time during the winter.
