Becca and I spent a number of weekends in Leavenworth last month, where the spring Balsamroot bloom seemed extra special this year. We did a lot of different activities: climbing, skiing, mountain biking, and paragliding. The east side of the Cascades is a beautiful place for all of these activities (and more!), but for me, there’s something extra special about zipping through a forest carpeted with flowers, or rolling down an exposed ridge with steep dropoffs on either side. I brought my camera along for a few rides so I could snap some pics. Thanks to Adam, Dunlin, Conner, and Matt for being patient with me on the climbs. Let me know what you think!
