Washington State Parks - Rasar State Park Washington Skagit County Campground
Washington State Parks are renowned for their campgrounds and natural settings. The Rasar State Park in Skagit County near Concrete Wa is a great place to spot Bald Eagles, hike and of course camp. There are walk in tent campsites, shelters, cabins, and of course traditional RV and Motorhome campsites with power and electric.
The Rasar State Park is only a 20 minute drive from Burlington Washington off the I-5 Freeway. Bring plenty of marshmallows and insect repellent as well as your camera so you can get some great shots of the Resident Bald Eagles. For more information about other hiking trails visit

WA, USA: I-90 (E) Seattle to Issaquah 2012.09.04
I-90 (Eastbound) from Seattle to Issaquah filmed at 14:30 just before the beginning of the afternoon peak.
The video begins on I-5 (Southbound) just north of I-90. The first 18 km (11 miles) of I-90 (Eastbound) is equipped with Active Traffic Management, with gantries spaced usually every 800 m. However there are no gantries on the floating bridge across Lake Washington.

Time Lapse - A Sunday Drive through Point Roberts, Washington, USA
May 29, 2016 - One great way to spend a beautiful Sunday afternoon like this is taking a trip across the border for a leisurely drive.
Join me on my 60 minute adventure through the exclave of Point Roberts, Washington, USA. I visit all four corners of this square-mile community, connected to the Lower 48 States only via road connections through Canada. Point Roberts features three major parks (Lily Point, Lighthouse, and Monument), a few of its major community areas (Maple Beach and South Beach), and the bodies of water that isolate this beautiful, quiet community on three sides.
Also, check out a great Canadian past time - buying cheap(er) gas and cheap(er) beer across the border. Even when the exchange rate isn't the greatest, it's still usually a deal. Note: Be sure to always let the customs agents know what you're bringing into/out of each country when crossing the border! There are limits to what you can bring, even if your visit is over 48 hours.
In the distance from Point Roberts, you can see as far as the North Shore mountains (north of Vancouver), as well as the skyscrapers in southern Burnaby and New Westminster. To the east, on a clear day, you can see the rest of the American Mainland in Blaine, Washington, with Mount Baker behind. To the south, the San Juan Islands, and to the west, British Columbia's Gulf Islands and Vancouver Island.
It's a beautiful little plot of land, and though many people think it should be a little piece of Canada (which would've made logical sense back in the day), I quite appreciate its uniqueness as what is, effectively, the largest gated community in the United States.
To book-end the trip is another light-speed trip down the main street of Tsawwassen, British Columbia, 56th Street.
At the end of the video I have provided a map of this adventure.
Enjoy!
Alki Beach, West Seattle. Seattle, Washington.
Aerial Footage 4/15/18.
Alki Point /ˈælkaɪ/ is the westernmost point in the West Seattle district of Seattle, Washington; Alki is the peninsular neighborhood surrounding it. Jutting out into Puget Sound, Alki was the original white settlement in what was to become the city of Seattle. Part of the city of West Seattle from 1902 to 1907, Alki was annexed to Seattle along with the rest of West Seattle in 1907.
The Alki neighborhood extends along the shore from the point, both southeast and northeast. To the northeast it continues past Alki Beach roughly to Duwamish Head, the northernmost point of West Seattle.
Alki Point also marks the southern extent of Elliott Bay; a line drawn northwest to West Point marks the division between bay and sound.
The Duwamish called it Prairie Point (Lushootseed: sbaqWábaqs). The name refers to prairies near the point that were maintained through seasonal burning by indigenous cultivators. It was a place of native occupation as well as colonial reconnaissance well before 1851.[1] Other names for the point include Battery Point, Me-Kwah-Mooks Point, and Roberts Point.[2]
The Denny Party landed at Alki Point November 13, 1851, and platted a settlement of six blocks of eight lots. The original name of the settlement was New York Alki, Alki being a word in Chinook Jargon (Wawa) meaning eventually or by and by.[3] The name New York may have been chosen because it was the state of origin of several of the settlers.[4] However, the next April, Arthur A. Denny abandoned the site at Alki for a better-situated site on the east shore of Elliott Bay, just north of the plat of David Swinson Doc Maynard. This site is now known as Pioneer Square.
Charles C. Terry, who owned the land, and some others held on at Alki for a while, but most eventually joined the others in Pioneer Square. Terry gave his claim to Maynard in 1857 in exchange for his Pioneer Square holdings; Maynard farmed the land for 11 years and sold it to Hans Martin Hanson and Knud Olson in 1868, Hanson taking possession of the point itself. The Alki Point Lighthouse dates from 1913, replacing the United States Lighthouse Service's post light from 1887 and Hanson's lantern-on-a-post from the mid-1870s.
Alki Point bathing beach, 1930
From 1925 to 1936, a ferry route across Puget Sound connected Alki Point with Manchester, Washington on the Kitsap Peninsula.[5]
Well into the 20th century, Alki was reachable from most of Seattle only by boat. Alki today is reminiscent of a Pacific Northwest beach town, with a mix of mid-century bungalows, medium-rise waterfront apartment houses, waterfront businesses, a thin beach, and a road with a bike/foot trail running several miles along the water. This section of West Seattle is bounded on the northwest by Elliott Bay; on the southwest by Puget Sound; and on the east by the West Seattle hill. Its main thoroughfares are Alki Avenue S.W. (northeast- and southwest-bound); Beach Drive S.W. (northwest- and southeast-bound); and S.W. Admiral Way (east- and westbound).
There have been summer concerts at Alki Beach since the early 1900s; the original streetcars to West Seattle were established in order to bring people to these events. Today, the beach plays host to the Seattle Music Fest every August, a three-day music festival that plays host to emerging Northwest artists and selected national and international headliners.
Denny Monument is located at Alki Point. It has the names of the first Seattle colony listed on it. The third side of the monument gives the names of the adults composing the first Seattle Colony: Arthur A. Denny and his Wife. John N. Low and Wife. Carson D. Boren and Wife. David D. Denny. Charles C. Terry, and on the base, New York Alki (By and By), the name first given the settlement. The fourth side says Erected by the Washington University State Historical Society, 13 November 1905, and on the base, Presented by Lenora Denny.

Pink Salmon Fishing: Washington State
My wife and I had a great camping and Pink Salmon catch and release fishing trip in northern Washington. She primarily used bobber and jig while I used a tenkara fly rod and did some bobber and jig as well. There is still plenty of time to target these fish in 2015 or you will have to wait until 2017.
