Great Pacific Northwest Adventure Blog - UFO and Big Foot Watch - Bald Mountain - Part One

Welcome to my first Great Pacific Northwest Adventure Blog! What an exciting and fun adventure. Just what I needed to get my MOJO back, especially after living on The Big Island of Hawaii for 8 years where everyday is an adventure. As most of you know, I made the decision to relocate back to Washington State after the "collapse events" at Halemaumau Crater in Kilauea which created so much vog in the area I lived. It had been a tough 3 months for me. As summer was arriving, I was so ready for a new adventure. When my friends invited me to go on a group trip to Bald Mountain on a UFO and Big Foot Watch overnight camp out, I accepted without hesitation. I had no doubt that the group that I was going with would be a lot of fun and it would be a breathtaking ride thru the Mount Rainer National Park and then on to Naches.

Aliens, Ufo's or Big Foot did not scare me. I was more concerned about the earthly creatures such as Black Bears, Cougars, Coyotes and Bob Cats. I was worried about Camping out in a wide open field surrounded by old growth tall pine trees. I had already seen a baby cougar run from the yard to the berry bushes in our on back yard when I walked out on the deck to have my morning coffee. I could only imagine what would be lurking in the forest on top of Bald Mountain! Carin Sharin, my dearest friend of over forty years, and I decided we were going to let the seats down in the back of the van and sleep there, if we slept!

Packing for this trip was a real challenge, especially not knowing what the weather would be like on the mountain. Weather in the daytime had been in the 90's but would quickly get much cooler once the sun went down. I was use to running around in shorts, tank tops and bare feet, so anything under 65 degrees had me shivering. I decided to take extra layers including heavy fur lined coat, beanie, gloves and extra warm fuzzy socks. ~ Just in case~ Besides clothing and blankets, there were coolers with perishable food, snacks, sleeping bags, fold-up chairs, flashlights, etc. Multiply all that times 4 and you can see why it was a packed vehicle with me crammed in back with Lanie and her blankets, etc. I knew it would be a long 3 hour ride..but well worth it.

I was busy taking photos thru the car window with my cell phone and laughing the whole way as we were all goofy and gabby. Even our stops were interesting and fun. I was so excited to return to nature, I forgot at times that we were going to an area where lights flash and dash across the skies, cell phones don't work, watches stop and no bathrooms. And most of all Big Foot has been sighted by several campers! Oh, and the hungry creatures lurking in the shadows. My only thought was to enjoy every precious moment of this adventure. I didn't want to miss a thing. So what if I got abducted..that too would be a new adventure, at least if they would let me take photos and not wipe my memory clean before they brought me back.

Our dear sweet driver and the best friend anyone could ever hope for "Carin Sharin"

Our other travel partner, "Dr. Scotty," drove his van as he was our guide and the organizer of the trip. Good thing because he had cots, more sleeping bags, and all kinds of gear and equipment. This next photo is "Reeses Pieces" goofing off in the safeway parking lot where we met our guide "Dr. Scotty." This was his impression of an Alien. Now you see why we all laugh so hard when we all get together.

Is that an Alien peeping thru my window? Oh wait, that is just my reflection..or is it? I do see a face on what looks like my finger!

Okay next few photos need no words or explanations. I will allow nature to speak for itself!...Just enjoy the beauty I see!!

Finally, my beloved Mt. Rainer!!!

There she is in all her glory!! Still covered in snow. I give you Mt. Rainer
