[Leica] View from top of Steptoe Butte

[Aram Langhans]

In the middle of the Palouse is this 3600 foot hunk or rock called 
Steptoe Butte.  A very brief description:

Steptoe Butte - Wikipedia <https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Steptoe_Butte>

It rises about 1000 feet above the countryside and you can drive to the 
top for a 360 degree view of the Palouse.  Often the patterns on the 
wheat fields around it are spectacular especially if the lighting is 
right.  The patterns were not so great this year and there was a haze in 
the sky, but it was worth the trip up.  The day before had heavy clouds 
and I was told some rain.  We did two trips up on two separate days to 
see if things would improve.  Here are a few shot from the summit.  They 
start  here and have 4 more to the right.
