Flying Washington Pass
Nathanael Mokry
I've been sitting inside entirely too long this winter. Seattle has been rainy and overcast for the past few months and I am becoming stir crazy. However, this weather has given me some downtime to edit some footage from an adventure I was on last April.
We hopped into my buddy's adventure van and drove north to Washington Pass. It's a little south of the the Canadian border in the North Cascade mountains of Washington state. Usually the snow levels close-down the highway that takes us to this location, but the snow was low enough that the highway opened early. The wind direction and speed were aligned. Our weather forecast models were showing a good possibility for lift and we were hungry to fly! .... Looking down on the tops of mountains is something that is hard to explain, but hopefully this will give you an idea of what it's like... Enjoy!
Special Thanks to Jake Pratt, Coty Holifield and Matt York for their company and footage!
