Beautiful photos all UTMike. Love the photos of Palouse Falls. Has anyone been to Stepto Butte State Park? 20 miles north of Colfax. Great vantage point to photograph the Palouse (360 degrees from the top). https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Steptoe_Butte Or just google it.


Thanks! As soon as I can sort out my capacity issues, I will be posting shots from Steptoe Butte.

Thanks for the tour, Mike. I was there 2 years ago. Your photos beat mine, hands down. Don't know what the problem is but I've never been able to photograph water falls.


I appreciate the kind words, Chief. I would have liked a lower sun angle, but with a limited amount of time, you take what you can get.

In my initial trip into the Palouse, after our first encounter with the wheat fields (https://www.uglyhedgehog.com/t-602048-1.html), we went to a couple of state parks that are not typical of the wheat fields, but had an appeal of their own. This was in the afternoon of our first day in the area so the sun was not great, but we could not wait for the better setting sun angles.

The first park came up on the road right after our first wheat fields. It is the Lewis and Clark Trail State Park. The second park is the Palouse Falls State Park.

Mike, a fantastic set that takes me to a place I will never see on my own, thank you.

In Washington we refer to these geological formations, which stretch from the northern part of the state down to Oregon as The Scablands. They were created by a mega flood around 13,000 years ago. The agricultural areas are the places where the elevation was high enough to escape the flood, and hence retain their soils. The Scablands soils are all down in Oregon these days.
