Lenticular Clouds, Hurricane Ridge

Another image from my day at Hurricane Ridge (with the dreaded snowshoes)…

Not only were the snowdrifts amazing, the sky was getting darker and more intense by the moment. Soon waves of clouds swirled across the mountains threatening even more snow, wind, and COLD.

After removing the snowshoes, I grabbed my sled, headed off to a section of hard packed snow, quickly landed on my butt and captured this shot shortly thereafter. In my world, success comes at a price!

Dungeness Crab Festival

Every year the festival celebrating everything crab and with whole crab dinners takes place the second weekend of October. (Next year oct 10-12 2025) Bring you crab hat!

Long-long lines are found for the crab dinner (even at $50!) But there are lots of other seafood vendors as well.

First time festival goers..

Crabfest Main Tent

Here with the giant octopus decorations is where the crab dinners are served up. THere are also lots of other seafood vendors with crab rolls, oysters, crab cakes and my favorite Kokopelli fish and chips. (with the best tarter sauce that I can’t manage to recreate!)

You can take your dinner and eat outside–with your hats on for sure!
