Another Winter Sunrise

You might be sick of my sunrise pics - but this one's too good not to share.  

Back in mid-January, while driving to Mt Hood for a day of skiing, I mentioned to my friend that Jonsrud Viewpoint, just outside of the town of Sandy was a fabulous place to catch sunrise.

My friend remarked he'd never been to said viewpoint.  As a  matter of fact, he didn't even know where it was located.

 

Colorful sky

 

As we began to drive through Sandy, I noticed the sky starting to turn colors.  The clouds were also looking interesting.  Seeing the beginnings of what looked to be an amazing sunrise, I turned the car around and headed straight to the viewpoint.

Great decision!  Not only did my friend get to see this wonderful overlook, the sunrise was definitely memorable.

 

Amazing clouds!

 

A great beginning to a wonderful day of skiing on my favorite mountain.
