Thank you! Was really fortunate that it was clear skies today. Most sunsets are cloudy this time of year, so not a lot of opportunity to capture the color on the mountain. This was was one of my favorites since the snow on December 1st.

Thanks! For the most part I make short little videos that don't really have a point (other than learning how to edit videos). Occasionally I make something that's important to me, but for the most part it's just a creative outlet. Thanks for subscribing and supporting me!

Beautiful shot! Hope you had hot chocolate at the lodge after.

I actually went to grab a beer at the brewery right afterwards! (Not allowed to drink for 8 hours before flying) But a hot chocolate would’ve definitely helped keep me warm from the bridge. It was really cold 🥶

The Native Americans have a fascinating legend regarding Mount Si origins. It fits your first impression of the landmass:
Mount Si figures prominently in a Prometheus story from the Snoqualmie tribe. According to the story it is the dead body of Snoqualm, the moon. Snoqualm had ordered that a rope of cedar bark be stretched between the earth and the sky. But Fox and Blue Jay went up the rope and stole the sun from Snoqualm. Snoqualm chased them down the cedar rope, but it broke and he fell to his death. Fox then let the sun free in the sky and gave fire to the people. A face like Snoqualm's is visible on the rocks near the summit.[8]
