From Toes in the Breakers to Heads in the Clouds

While on Fidalgo Island, it was a short drive from the gravel shores of Rosario Beach to the rocky heights of Mount Erie. Hoping for a break in the clouds and the inspiring view from the crest of Mt. Erie, we left our sea level adventure for a mountain top experience - if not view.

The view from the top of Mount Erie was not extensive,
but we could see an island in a lake on an island.

Mount Erie overlook.

We had gone from an elevation of 0 feet at sea level to a height of 1,273 feet.

We got a sense of the islands and channels beyond Fidalgo and Whidbey Islands. Then we got hungry and thought a return to La Connor for lunch would be a good idea. And it was.
