MOUNTADAMS, or "Pahto" as he was
called by the Klickitat people, looms above northern prairie. Over his left
shoulder are the GoatRocks and Mt. Rainier. The winter sunrise floods his
slopes in pinks and purples. The autumn sunsets set the prairie at his base
on fire in goldenrod and rust.
MOUNT HOOD ("Wyeast") rises above the Columbia River
Gorge to our southwest. Just as the sunrise tints Mount Adams, Mount Hood
basks in the orange glow of sunset.
