An Oregon Cascades Sunset Video - 2010
In October 2010, I drove from Port Orford, Oregon to Moab, Utah. Near the end of my first day on the road, I was heading east on Oregon Route 242 through the Willamette National Forest and the Cascade Range. As I approached the top of McKenzie Pass (5325 ft. elevation), I saw a halo of light in my rear-view mirror.
As soon as the sun dipped behind a high ridge, a
golden glow backlit the scene. In a matter of minutes, the scene would
begin to fade. Despite the hours of driving that still lay ahead of me,
I stayed long enough to take my pictures.
As the colors of the sunset began to fade, I headed
over the pass and into the darkness the national forest. Somewhere ahead
on that road was the City of Bend, Oregon.
