I'll allow it

Another Black Friday deal conquered. Last Days Gone on the shelf when I was going through! There and back in under an hour.

Probably the last good opportunity before snow.

Who gets fired?

Sometimes I wonder how or why I support a team owned by this guy.

Offutt today. Looking NW from the Southern tip of the runway. You will see to the west of the runway that some buildings are in the water now.

Regarding my last toot- big black vertical line is Missouri River.

The one forming an L is the Platte. They would normally be the size of the state/county lines. Douglas county, which houses Omaha, is in the middle and the shape of Iowa.

^^^^Heat wave!

I've heard that once it gets to a certain temperature, you don't feel it get any colder. Good times.

Boyd/Albert Ice Cave. Psyched to find a cave out here that just had advisories and no required permits or charges. With my hiking boot induced blisters and wife no longer wanting to crawl on her stomach or all fours, we didn't quite make it all the way to the end.

If anyone has pics of the end, would love to see!

Also found this view of (what seems like) every mountain in Oregon, north of Bend.

Climbed a mountain, found the lake that winter ice/the glacier melts into.

I meant to do a thread of pics... suppose I could as well, but my timeline will also act as such. Proxy Falls, which were a huge surprise and absolute stunning. Comparable to Bridal Veil Falls in Spearfish, SD and Fairy Falls in Yellowstone.
You can hike right up to the base of all three and part way up the right side of all of them...I have done so.

Never expected to be in such awe of lava fields, but here we are.

This was popular! Here's another-
It's weird: to me Crater Lake feels like hidden gem despite being a National Park. Some of the most pristine (yet very cold) waters in the US. Not a place you expect such clear, blue water. Getting out is a beast though. Side winder trail with STEEP inclines.
