Oregon may soon become the latest state to pass right-to-repair legislation, but Apple says Senate Bill 1596 proposes a security risk. Here’s more from Tech Crunch, including the parts of the bill Apple supports. https://flip.it/7B6f35

Wilson River Trail: Part 1

I had an amazing weekend, I’m so happy spring is finally here. It’s so freeing to carry everything you need on your back and be completely surrounded by nature. I feel so much safer alone in the middle of the forest than camping along forest roads. I’m considering this spring training while the Cascades are still covered in snow. This trail is ideal for that.

#Backpacking #PNW #Oregon #Photography #Hiking #Walking #Nature #Outdoors #LandscapePhotography

Light and dark green trees cover hills and mountains in the Tillamook State Forest. Light blue clear sky.

Wilson River Trail rounds a corner over a small creek crossing. Green ferns and light green moss covered rocks along the sides of the trail.

A light fog blankets the forest along the North Fork Wilson River near the Diamond Hill OHRV park. Thin trees line the banks of the river.

White and yellow backpacking tent is pitched along an abandoned forest road and trail. A peaceful location about a half mile off of the Wilson River Trail that gets few visitors. Tall trees and green ferns fill the forest.

As extractive “wildcrafting” has become popular, supposedly treaty-protected #Indigenous access to ancestral gathering sites has diminished, says Michelle Week (Sinixt, Arrow Lakes), who runs x̌ast sq̓it, an Indigenous foods farm near #Portland #Oregon.

“You have the privilege to go out and gather these things without fear of harassment, but my community, who’s native to this place, we just don’t have that luxury.”

Still processing photos, but got some decent shots of my first non-fleeting Bullock’s Orioles! She was particularly keen on getting her portrait taken and sat for quite some time. 🧡🖤

Central Cascades

I was trying to find a location with less rain showers this weekend and somehow ended up camping in the mountains. 🤔 Today was so fun and I want to remember that when the snow showers start in the morning. The mountain views have been stunning. Seeing how close I can get to Mount Washington tomorrow. Maybe the weather will be totally fine but I’m prepared to bail if I’m not able to stay warm.

#Backpacking #Hiking #PNW #Oregon #Outdoors #LandscapePhotography #Mountains

Mount Washington. The volcano has a wide and flat rocky face that is covered in snow. Miles of burnt forest between the viewer and the mountain. Green forest leads to gray trees. Blue sky with large streaks of gray clouds.

Square Lake at sunrise. Orange and purple clouds reflect into a relatively calm alpine lake. White mist floats above the lake in the distance. A few trees are on the opposite shore.

Three Fingered Jack. The large jagged rocky peak has three points, for the three fingers. An alpine meadow with some gray dead tree trunks are in front of the mountain. New green trees are thriving in the fire’s wake. Portions of the dark rock and ridge line are covered in white snow, but the peak is not. Beautiful blue skies.

The Old Summit Trail enters the Jefferson Wilderness. A sign on trail right says Mount Jefferson Wilderness, Deschutes National Forest. The trail traverses an exposed forest with some green trees and some burnt ones. Light blue sky with artistic white clouds.

Yesterday's 12 mile hike included 6 miles on the shoulder of highway 101, but Strawberry Hill was on the way and was begging to be explored! I spent a good hour there watching the harbor seals and the pelicans. Here are a few of my favorite shots.

#Nature #Oregon #Hiking #Photography

A group of harbor seals rests on black mussel-covered rocks, with one seal baring its teeth in a playful or territorial gesture.

Two harbor seals lie close together on barnacle-covered rocks, appearing relaxed and alert among a scattered group.

Four brown pelicans glide in tight formation just above the ocean surface, wings outstretched over choppy coastal water.

A small group of brown pelicans soars gracefully over calm ocean waters, silhouetted against a clear blue sky.
