Diablo Overlook, North Cascades Highway

Last night I drove up the North Cascades Highway to do a Photo Tour Slide Show for campers at the Colonial Creek Camp ground in North Cascades National Park.

I got there a little early and tooled up a bit further to the Diablo Overlook. The green waters of Diablo Lake and the suns rays as the sunset approached were stunning.

We don’t often get the confluence ot no moon and clear skies here in Western Washington so I am counting my blessings!
