When this is posted I'll be lifting off on the first leg of the 2016 Alaska adventure. I was last there in 2008 and this was the scene upon my arrival by ferry. It'll be a different trip this time around but equally as grand. I can't wait to land the first fish...
Day two of the spring visit to the Gorge found us east of Hood River on the section of historic highway 30 that starts in Mosier. It’s a great stretch of road that winds above I-84 with a slower pace and great views.
This end of the Gorge is dryer and therefore has less trees and more open grasslands. During the right time of year it is filled with wildflowers.
Spring has sprung and it’s the perfect time to head to the Gorge to see wildflowers popping so off we went. We started on the west end and moved east over the weekend. We had the typical west side early morning cloud bank but off to the east blue sky was beckoning.
