So as a follow on to the Grand Coolie Dam trip back in June, my friends up in Seattle for the summer decided to head up no the North Cascades National Park area and see that. On the whole, the trip wasn’t a whole lot of fun (for a bunch of reasons); but the area was really pretty and get back there sometime. Maybe make it all the way through the park next time…maybe actually hike the trails a bit… Oh well; here’s pictures!
Top of Baker Dam…it creates Baker Lake (to the right). To the left there’s a canyon/gorge that was fairly impressive…too bad none of the pictures turned out.
We stopped at Lake Shannon too & I was able to get a picture of this old abandoned(?) building (house?).
I like the curvature of Diablo Dam…makes it easier to get pictures of the dam face than the straight ones like the one at Baker Lake :).
Decent capture of what North Cascades National Park is like (that’s a little bit of Diablo Lake in the bottom left).
