Hey oreoboreo, that's a beautiful scene. What's the name of the snowy hill off in the distance?

Mt. Hood. I was sitting at about 1500' so the view across was great

Wow, Nice catch prendrefeu

Thanks for the info. I always enjoy the mountainous/hilly shots you guys post. Where I'm from, you can ride a double century and have a maximum vertical of ten meters. i.e. pancake flat.

I used to live in Hood River.

I loved the fact that I could go skiing/snowboarding in the morning, go wakeboarding/kiteboarding/windsurfing in the afternoon, and ride my bike in the evening. All on the same day.

I still dream of the trails there. Amazing area.
