Day Three of my trip to visit Thom was spent in the Snoqualmie National Forest up near the pass. We went snowshoeing. It was a little nippy when we started out, but the sun managed to peek through the clouds and warm things up by mid-afternoon. It was a beautiful day and we had a great hike.

Everything was buried under a lot of snow, making the entire area seem like some kind of winter wonderland. With nothing but white snow, dark trees, and black rocks, the world was monochromatic.

I loved the deep mounds of pristine snow.

We spent a while wandering around. There weren’t any clear trails, so we followed some ski tracks and other snowshoeing paths, occasionally trailblazing a bit through the powder. The scenery was amazing.

So much snow! I loved it.
