Description
Today we hiked Dog Mountain, on the Washington side of the Columbia River Gorge. The trail climbs 2800 ft in about 3 miles (850 m in 4.8 km). Near the top there are meadows that are bursting with flowers this time of year. Most of what you see here is Arrowleaf Balsamroot, with flowers bigger than the palm of your hand.
Our destination was up by the trees in upper right. There were great views of the Gorge and the river, but I think I'm getting too old for climbs like this I'm exhausted, and headed for bed. I'll catch up on comments tomorrow.
Thanks for stopping by and any comments.

QUE HERMOSO LUGAR!!! YO AMO A ESTE TIRO!!!! QUE DESEO DE ESTAR ALLI!!! BRAVO DENNIS!!!!!! ROBY
Quite the climb, better you than me as they say lol ... I wouldn't even make it to the top, so I applaud you if you did ... Awesome capture ...Not a site you see every day ... Beautiful!
This must have been absolutely spectacular to see in person because it sure is pretty in this picture. I'm looking forward to this hike with you, especially since you have already done all the climbing and I can just sit back and enjoy with no effort.
I don't know if I could make this climb any more. I could, but I would have to stop to catch my breath many times over. Still, if I had plenty of time, I'd love to do it. This has a gorgeous view to it. Great shot.
oh so wonderful !
Beautiful place. wonderful photo!!
That's quite a hike! If I were you, I'd still be tired from the climbs you did last year. I like this shot - the curve of the hill and the curve of the path make for a wonderful compsition.
I can feel your pains as I view this hiking trail... Very impressive. Aloha
Fantastic POV and depth. Excellent shot, I like the colors and the view!
A superb compo for this pic of a marvellous place!
Glorious shot and the people gives a sense of scale! WOW!!! :)

Like a tilted horizon approach. Excelent capture and a green is so bright.
Great shot. Looks like a very strenuous hike to me. I'll pass! I'm getting too old for this kind of hiking.

Awesome point of view and shot! Beautiful country and it looks like quite a trek.
What a lovely trail! Is that pile of rocks erosion control? Beautiful views of the blooms :)
Wonderful composition and colors -- and no wonder you're tired! Quite the deceptively difficult hike!
Well I usually try to pick those 2 mile loops. But this looks like a beautiful and refreshing hike to take. I can just smell the fresh air and sense the view.
I would love to take this hike... invite me next time :)
Just look at that meadow of flowers! Gorgeous! But 2800 ft. in 3 miles... what a climb! You must be very fit!
