From Forks to Mount Rainier: Reflecting on Aurora and Stargazing Adventures | 50at60 – Episode #4

A few chats from the car on my journey to this area of Washington. Was hoping for a replay of the Aurora, but settled on a nice clear evening as star filled sky surrounded the peak of Mount Rainier. Was up at the visitors center parking lot area of Paradise (along with many others!) waiting for a possible light show and repeat of last night. Have you ever been up there? Have you ever seen the Aurora?

The scene must have been quite magical up in this area the night before I took this, but the stars on this cold dark night were pretty cool too 🙂

I dive a bit deeper into the surrounding area in next weeks vlog, so make sure and check back to follow the journey!

Join me in Episode #4 of my 50 at 60 journey as I continue exploring the beautiful state of Washington. Leaving the charming town of Forks, I head towards the majestic Mount Rainier, reflecting on the incredible Aurora Borealis light show from the previous night. Along the way, I stop at various scenic sites, sharing my thoughts and experiences from the car. The day culminates with stunning astrophotography from the Paradise area of Mount Rainier, capturing the beauty of the night sky. Don’t miss this episode filled with reflections, scenic drives, and celestial wonders.
