Black Mountain Sky



Last Saturday my wife & I wet down to the caravan site to close up the caravan and put it in storage for the winter. We came home the usual way through the Black Mountains. The week before I noticed snow on the tops and a week later it was still there waiting for more to come. The photos were taken out of the passenger window as we drove past  towards Sugarloaf Mountain  and the dark sky above.



Heading up the A40 road through the mountain


Heading down and looking back towards the snow capped tops there are times when low cloud hides them all.

I've yet to see any snow this year. Hope I only encounter it when I don't have to drive.

Hi Bill, Nice shots. You would be surprised how much the area just east of Seattle, in the Cascade Mountain foothills, looks like the scene in your photos. I enjoy your Daily Photos!
