smoky day



Well they weren't kidding when they said the smoke would be rolling in.  I noticed last night smoke along the bottom of the mountain and got a little worried there was a local forest fire but found out that it is from forest fires in the Yukon and British Columbia.  It is pretty impressive.  We actually can only see shadows of the mountains that are 2-3 miles away.  It is all you can smell.  The smoke actually is bothering my eyes and I took my allergy medicine today to stop the itching.  I am hoping the wind shifts soon and blows this stuff out of here!
I am posting a picture of our shadow moutain that is about 3-4 miles away.  Look very closely and you can see the shadow.  I will look for a picture that has the same view so you can see the contrast but am sure it is on the old PC.  Also posting one of the kids hiking at the top of the Mt Roberts Tram last week.
