Yellowstone has been on my to-see list for a while. 2020 has been weird, and was hesitant to travel for a while. I broke.
I hadn’t seen family for a while, and thought a drive to Colorado with stops in Yellowstone and Glacier is exactly what I needed.
Day 1 The plan was to get to Colorado from Seattle ASAP, which means a long drive to stop at Nampa, ID.
This was the first time in many years that I got to travel with my sister, who recently graduated (congratulations, Pajju!). :) In the process, scratch off another state off my to-see list. Summer is a great time to be in Alaska. I did NOT expect it to be so warm up there. It felt, “normal”.
Matanuska Glacier We started our trip by walking on some glaciers, and learning a lot along the way.
The long weekend is here! Decided to drive to oregon and chill over the weekend with Shreyas.
Angel’s rest: Hike by the columbia river separating Oregon and Washington. Also, witnessed some burnt trees - it was quite eerie walking by the scene of dead, burnt trees. Did a wildfire take place recently? Most likely. Global warming, sigh. Drink lots of wine and be merry Eat vegan voodoo donuts and balance out the calories lost over the hike.
With Surbhi Kamboj Oregon has diversity in landscapes, perfect for summer!
We started at Portland (great place for Vegans, BTW), and then moved towards Three Sisters, where we hiked Smith Rock State Park under the blaring sun.
On the way back, we went on another beautiful waterfall hike in the region, and went towards the coast to stay over, after a quick stop at Ruby Beach.
Surbhi - please don’t be afraid of heights; otherwise I’ll be forced to release the video where you’re afraid to walk down a bunny slope.
