On the way home from Wyoming, we meandered back along the highway that parallels the Hood River which allowed for some great view of Mount Hood.
We then left the main road in order to avoid the hustle and bustle of Portland and went through a national forest which led us to scenic views of Mt. St. Helens.
Before heading back to Vancouver Island, we stopped for a couple days in the Olympic Mountains for a hike up Mt. Angeles via Switchback Trail. We didn't make it quite to the top due to hard packed snow and no crampons.

| We think the highest peak is Mt. Olympus. |
 |
| Steep, hard-packed snow (and no crampons) kept us from going any further than this. |
