Cloud Peak Wilderness area, WY today. Taken from about 8,900' the peaks behind go to over 13,000. If I had knees still and boot I would ski those slots. Yes we made it up to a couple of little snow patches.

Ten Sleeps Canyon, WY. There must have been 100+ rock climbers out there today. Some of those walls are well over 1,000' straight up.

A succulat growing on top of Powder River Pass, about 8800' up in WY. Who knew?

The Stage at Ten Sleeps Brewery. It is about 16' deep. I would love to see a performance here. all in all a very good day.

Just finished this adult playfort / wine house for a great client.
It's equipped with stove, carpet and sliding glass doors. We had a custom 15ft spiral stairs built on left and a fire pole for quick exit on the right.
The best part that you can't see in the photo is the fantastic view of Belleayre and the old highmount ski center right in front off in the distance.
You can watch the gondola lift going in with a good set of binoculars

Looking to the Northwest from the shoulder of Medicine Mountain into the Powder River Basin of Wyoming. That is over a 6,000' drop to the flats in the distance. It is a 13 mile 10% grade driving that way.

Great job! Just a quick question, do you need to put a ground cable on the fire pole because would it act as a lightning rod?

@Uncle-A, we addressed that issue with grounding and with house rules.
No drinking and sliding during a thunder storm.

Today we headed up to Artist Point at the end of the Mt. Baker Highway, just above the ski area. This is a place that gives a National Park experience without actually being in one. It's right next to North Cascades N.P. though. The views are 360* and the dominant peaks are Mt. Baker and Mt. Shuksan.

And here they are:

Wrightsville Beach. More crowded and less nice than our usual spot at Kure Beach. Going back there next time.

Johnny Mercer Pier.

This was at 11 am. Was getting insanely crowded when we left at noon. It's still pretty nice, very popular, but we prefer heading a little farther south past Atlantic Beach most of the time we head that way.
