Castle Crags Panaorama - Forest - Mountain
Mount st Helens and Castle Lake
Autumn in Washington State, USA. Drone approaching the narrow river in Castle Rock with beautiful mountains at backdrop.

The Toutle River runs for 17 miles in two separate forks, converging into one and finally spilling into the Cowlitz River just a few miles north of Castle Rock. At this point on the boundary trail, you can see that ash still pervades its banks, though the inevitable spread of flora and fauna will soon build up enough topsoil to revitalize the area. I had never seen a clearer, and more definitive view of the tributary, even in photographs. It is astounding how much of the mountain's topography, geology and habitat are on clear display on this trail. And on a beautiful day, you can't really find a more beautiful hike in the southwestern portion of the state.

The breakfast was stocked well, id say a small step above the usual continental breakfast because there was a yogurt machine with a lot of toppings, and a variety of hot food choices. The coffee machine all day is a big plus. When we checked in there was cookies so that was cool. We didn't use the ...
