Whychus Creek Scenic Overlook

It has been a couple years since I took a trip up to the overlook. A short walk, about a mile round trip, yields some huge payouts view wise. It's probably only 15 minutes from my house so I should probably make it a point to visit this place a little more often. So give it a scroll and enjoy some of the picturesque views from my little afternoon adventure. Might even be a video of some of the hike and me working hard to bring you these pictures. ๐Ÿ˜‚

wco-7.JPGThis is the same shot overall but I stitched together three 90mm focal length shots in Lightroom to make this panorama.

wco-5.JPGHere is a view of Whychus creek down below. The Central Oregon Cascades have had a pretty good snow year so hopefully this creek will be flowing strong all summer. ๐Ÿ™‚

Some rock formations I passed on the walk. ----- ![wco-13.JPG](https://files.peakd.com/file/peakd-hive/oldmans/23wC1GD1fpupFHR8S3Q3EPPDWnjcLaxSnb6wiu7qChq5f8rorgkbFUstjS9VMDiHaZJGY.JPG)A small arch in the rocks. About 5 or 6 years ago I hiked up and took some pictures there. You can line up Mt Jefferson through the hole so it is a pretty cool effect. The results were less than spectacular so I hope with a little more experience now I can get up there and give it another go. ๐Ÿ™‚ _________________________________ As promised, a 4.5 minute video of my expedition. https://youtu.be/i4lmxMfyXYw ---------------------------------- Please feel free to make comments or ask me any questions about this post.
