Bob TregilusThe Nevada State Fish is Oncorhynchus henshawi henshawi (Lahontan cutthroat trout). It was once an important food source for the Paiute and Washoe tribes of Nevada and California. The fish evolved in the large endorheic Pleistocene Lake Lahonton that covered a portion of northeastern California and most of northwestern Nevada. <a href="https://fosstodon.org/tags/Fish" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Fish</a> <a href="https://fosstodon.org/tags/IceAge" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#IceAge</a> <a href="https://fosstodon.org/tags/StreetArt" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#StreetArt</a> <a href="https://fosstodon.org/tags/Art" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Art</a> <a href="https://fosstodon.org/tags/Nevada" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Nevada</a> <a href="https://fosstodon.org/tags/BlackAndWhite" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#BlackAndWhite</a> <a href="https://fosstodon.org/tags/StreetPhotography" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#StreetPhotography</a> <a href="https://fosstodon.org/tags/Photography" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Photography</a> <a href="https://fosstodon.org/tags/Darktable" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Darktable</a>

Eugene ParnellHiking Ancient Lakes part 8. This giant boulder seems eerily prescient, like something out of a fantasy novel. Perhaps someone (or some thing) threw it off the cliff at the last people who passed this way.

Eugene ParnellHiking Ancient Lakes part 7. You can't go wrong with waterfalls and columnar basalt. Orange lichen on rabbit brush. Also does anyone recognize these giant reeds? Is this invasive pampas grass or something native? I don't know many of the plants here at all. 7/8 <a href="https://mstdn.social/tags/PNW" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#PNW</a> <a href="https://mstdn.social/tags/Washington" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Washington</a> <a href="https://mstdn.social/tags/hiking" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#hiking</a> <a href="https://mstdn.social/tags/geology" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#geology</a> <a href="https://mstdn.social/tags/iceage" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#iceage</a> <a href="https://mstdn.social/tags/getoutside" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#getoutside</a> <a href="https://mstdn.social/tags/outdoors" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#outdoors</a>

Eugene ParnellHiking Ancient Lakes part 6. Small video: turn the sound up. It's frog breeding season in the still water of the coulee lakes, and they're going crazy.

Eugene ParnellHiking Ancient Lakes part 5. Here's some closeups of the main rock attraction here: columnar basalt, a result of ancient lava flows (way more ancient than the lakes). I keep wondering where all this lava came from-- the nearest existant volcano is probably Mt Rainier, over 130km away. 5/8 <a href="https://mstdn.social/tags/PNW" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#PNW</a> <a href="https://mstdn.social/tags/Washington" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Washington</a> <a href="https://mstdn.social/tags/hiking" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#hiking</a> <a href="https://mstdn.social/tags/geology" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#geology</a> <a href="https://mstdn.social/tags/iceage" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#iceage</a> <a href="https://mstdn.social/tags/getoutside" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#getoutside</a> <a href="https://mstdn.social/tags/outdoors" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#outdoors</a>

Eugene ParnellHiking Ancient Lakes part 4. This is a state park. Strangely, the trails aren't very well marked and in order to see all the good parts you have to drive round the outside to a couple different trailheads. But on a weekday in March, it's blissfully quiet and empty. I saw only maybe 6 people all day. 4/8 <a href="https://mstdn.social/tags/PNW" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#PNW</a> <a href="https://mstdn.social/tags/Washington" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Washington</a> <a href="https://mstdn.social/tags/hiking" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#hiking</a> <a href="https://mstdn.social/tags/geology" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#geology</a> <a href="https://mstdn.social/tags/iceage" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#iceage</a> <a href="https://mstdn.social/tags/getoutside" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#getoutside</a> <a href="https://mstdn.social/tags/outdoors" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#outdoors</a>

Eugene ParnellHiking Ancient Lakes part 3. This place is called "Ancient Lakes" and it's right by "The Gorge" amphitheater (WA people will know this place for its outdoor concerts). Ironically this system of coulees (canyon like flood channels) was formed by post-Ice Age glacial runoff, which in geological time isn't ancient at all-- it's like the day before yesterday. 3/8 <a href="https://mstdn.social/tags/PNW" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#PNW</a> <a href="https://mstdn.social/tags/Washington" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Washington</a> <a href="https://mstdn.social/tags/hiking" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#hiking</a> <a href="https://mstdn.social/tags/geology" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#geology</a> <a href="https://mstdn.social/tags/iceage" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#iceage</a> <a href="https://mstdn.social/tags/getoutside" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#getoutside</a> <a href="https://mstdn.social/tags/outdoors" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#outdoors</a>

Eugene ParnellHiking Ancient Lakes part 2. The Columbia Gorge (which has the Columbia River running through it) is kind of unimaginably huge. The snow capped ridges in the distance are like 50km away and the river itself is beyond the nearer cliffs and lakes, but before the snowy ridges, hidden in a literal gorge some 500(?) meters below any of the ground you see here. 2/8 <a href="https://mstdn.social/tags/PNW" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#PNW</a> <a href="https://mstdn.social/tags/Washington" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Washington</a> <a href="https://mstdn.social/tags/hiking" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#hiking</a> <a href="https://mstdn.social/tags/geology" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#geology</a> <a href="https://mstdn.social/tags/iceage" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#iceage</a> <a href="https://mstdn.social/tags/getoutside" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#getoutside</a> <a href="https://mstdn.social/tags/outdoors" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#outdoors</a>

Eugene ParnellFirst hiking thread of 2025. This is the time of year that those of us in the Puget Sound region get tired of the rain, and after a very waterlogged weekend, I struck out East, across the Cascades, to the Columbia Gorge. 1/8 <a href="https://mstdn.social/tags/PNW" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#PNW</a> <a href="https://mstdn.social/tags/Washington" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#Washington</a> <a href="https://mstdn.social/tags/hiking" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#hiking</a> <a href="https://mstdn.social/tags/geology" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#geology</a> <a href="https://mstdn.social/tags/iceage" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#iceage</a> <a href="https://mstdn.social/tags/getoutside" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#getoutside</a> <a href="https://mstdn.social/tags/outdoors" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#outdoors</a>
