Lava flows at the top were interesting, and a marker was there to show us what we were looking at. http://gallery.leica-users.org/v/Aram/f12/td/McKenzie+Pass-3643.jpg.html Don't have any idea who she was. http://gallery.leica-users.org/v/Aram/f12/td/McKenzie+Pass-3650.jpg.html On the west side of the pass is Proxy falls, a waterfall I have been wanting to shoot for 40 years, but it was never on the way to anywhere we were going, or the pass was closed with snow. http://gallery.leica-users.org/v/Aram/f12/td/Proxy+Fals-3668.jpg.html http://gallery.leica-users.org/v/Aram/f12/td/Proxy+Fals-3694.jpg.html My wife in her shooting pose. http://gallery.leica-users.org/v/Aram/f12/td/Proxy+Fals-3691.jpg.html Going down the coast, we made it to Brandon, where my wife met an interesting guy walking his dog. http://gallery.leica-users.org/v/Aram/f12/td/Bandon-3716.jpg.html Stormy weather as we camped at the Big Lagoon, where three people were drowned just a few weeks ago, caught in a large wave and the ensuing undertow.
