Aerial Photo Calendar

Every Christmas I make a calendar for my friends and family. This year the theme of the calendar is "Aerial North Cascades," containing 13 carefully selected high-quality aerial images of Washington's rugged and beautiful glaciated North Cascades. Each month is represented by an aerial photo taken during that month. Here is a sampling of my aerial photography.

The calendars are large format and professionally printed by Apple. Contact me at sabegg@gmail.com if you are interested in acquiring a calendar(s). I order the calendars from Apple on an individual basis and get them directly shipped to your address. The calendar can be ordered at any time, and can be even be customized to span any range of months (for example, June 2013-June 2014).

Photos by month:
JAN: Early Winters / Liberty Bell
FEB: South Hozomeen
MAR: Hidden Lake Lookout
APR: Glacier Peak
MAY: Shuksan
JUN: Baker
JUL: Bonanza
AUG: Baker
SEP: Dome Peak
OCT: Wildfires '12
NOV: Mt. Stuart
DEC: Southern Pickets
(JAN): Rainier
+++: Mystery peak on cover

As a challenge, if you can name the summit on the cover photo below I will offer you (for the same price) a special 13-month calendar containing Mt. Rainier on the extra month.

Sidebar placeholder page for:
"WA Trip Reports > Fire Lookouts"

In the 1920's and 30's, the Forest Service built a number of lookouts in Washington in order to spot fires. By the 1970's, most were abandoned as fire detection began to rely on other technologies. There are a number—by my count, 92 of them, as of 2010—of old fire lookouts still standing on summits across Washington. It is my goal to eventually visit every single one. Access my Washington trip reports in the "Fire Lookouts" category via the Washington main page or the dropdown Sidebar to the left.
