Contests are all about getting there and getting back. Sucked in by a rosy forecast I blasted across the Cascades in NW Wash at 9000' expecting a "little" cloud to hug the mountains from the ocean side. Didn't expect to spend an hour marveling at how well the engine ran or whether the ATIS at my destination was going to go from scattered to overcast. Nothing to do but sit, so I pulled out my Blackberry and took a video.

That mountain at my 2 o'clock is Mt Baker at 10,500'. Tops of the overcast were around 8000'.
