Yep, sure is. The other pics in here have Mt. Saint Hellens, Mt. Adams, Mt. Jefferson, and the Three Sisters. Have you flown out here before?

 

I've never flown around PNW (at least not in the Mooney), but have fair amount of time in the area visiting friends. I've skied Hood, and backpacked most of the Lassen Volcanic National Park (NorCal but still in the Cascades). I could see Shasta from Lassen Peak which was sort of like the view from an airplane. ;-) Have you ever run into Monarch butterflies at altitude. There were hundreds if not thousands of them flying across Lassen Peak (10,462) when I was there back in 08. It was a bizarre but beautiful contrast of rock, ice, snow and butterflies!

Monarch butterflies? That's a bit crazy. No, I haven't seen any. I'll be on the lookout now, though!

Sounds like a really pretty place to ski and backpack. I'm originally from Colorado, but unfortunately I haven't owned my Mooney and lived there again. I did a lot of skiing and backpacking there, though. Sounds similar to the Cascades.
