Warrior Peak is located immediately to its right. The sun is casting a golden glint on the water of Puget Sound.

  • Thin cirrus clouds mimick the shape of the Olympic Mountain Range in Washington state. The mountains are not especially high - Mount Olympus is the highest at 7,962 ft (2,427 m) - but they rise quickly from the Pacific Ocean and are densely packed. This wall of mountains traps ocean storms, resulting in a temperate rain forest at their western base. The Hoh Rain Forest records an average of 142 in (360 cm) of rainfall each year, making it the wettest area in the 48 contiguous states. This image was captured from near Hurricane Ridge in Olympic National Park.

  • A snowy owl (Nyctea scandiaca) is perched on a bare winter tree Damon Point in Ocean Shores, Washington, with the Olympic mountains in the background. Snowy owls, which spend the summer in the northern circumpolar region north of 60 degrees latitude, have a typical winter range that includes Alaska, Canada and northern Eurasia. Every several years, for reasons still unexplained, the snowy owls migrate much farther south in an event known as an irruption. During one irruption, a snowy owl was found as far south as the Caribbean. During the 2011-2012 irruption, Ocean Shores on the Washington coast was the winter home for an especially large number of snowy owls. Snowy owls tend to prefer coastal and plains areas, which most resemble the open tundra that serves as their typical home. The owl shown here is a young bird; snowy owls become almost entirely white as they age, though females retain some of the darker coloration.
