Photo Of The Day – Four Volcanoes And A Wildfire

Title: Four Volcanoes And A Wildfire

Location: Central Oregon, United States, North America

Description: While Mt. St. Helens did not make the cut in this shot, I was happy to line up (from front to back) Mt. Jefferson, Mt. Hood, both in Oregon and then Mt. Adams and Mt Rainier in Washington. A wildfire known as the Whitewater Fire, still burning today, had recently started when I flew over.

I’m excited to be heading back to Central America and you can join me for one of two trips in November and December 0f 2017 in Costa Rica and Panama. One trip is from Costa Rica to Panama, including a transit of the Panama Canal and a number of National Parks and islands, while the other is the same itinerary in reverse. I’d love to see you on either trip and you can save $200/cabin by using code CH2U117 when booking either of those Costa Rica/Panama itineraries.

If you want something a little cooler, head to Alaska in August for another photography cruise with UnCruise Adventures!
