| I was amazed at how much Mt Hood dominated the skyline. This was along I-84 and the Columbia River Gorge. |
 |
| Mt Hood again, this time as we’re heading south towards Madras on US 97. |
 |
| Smoke from wild fires was prominent (and concerning) at times. |
 |
| The view from our campground Sunday morning. Smoke is almost obscuring Mt Jefferson. |

| We had a sun shelter set up in Madras -- it was essential! |
 |
| Our campground on Saturday evening. By Sunday evening just about every available space was filled with tents. |
 |
| Our campsite was just west of the Madras airport, and every day there was a continuous stream of skydivers. |
