It's amazing how much the Cascade's protect the west from fire smoke. Winds permitting, but it's still amazing. Nespelem's surrounding area is being evacuated and the town is surrounded by evacuate level 3 zones (go now!). Truly a horrifying time for those people.

Clouding up.

If you’re trying to book with no preparation sure. Tell me what are the options? Cheaper tickets to make the lines even longer? I feel for those that aren’t able to make it up as much, that’s how it was for me until I moved to Bend. It’s a top 5-10 largest resort with a top 5-10 longest season.

68/62 for the day here. Pretty much solid overcast with a few sprinkles now and then.

73/57 at KSEA today. -3.3F departure
