Description

This photo was taken along the trail to the Hidden Lake Lookout Tower. The hike begins in dense forest, but as you climb, the landscape opens up and the views become increasingly dramatic. This spot in particular caught my eye. There's a natural leading line into the valley, the fall colors were glowing in the late afternoon sun, and if you look closely, you can just make out Mount Baker in the hazy distance. It was one of those moments where everything felt perfectly placed.
