Think Honolulu and you’ll probably think Diamond Head, too. This volcanic landmark makes for a great landscape viewed from sea level, but if you’re feeling ambitious enough to hike to the summit (along with a couple thousand other tourists!), the view of the city from above is absolutely stunning. Here’s a peek from my own journey in February 2013!
Oregon’s spectacular Columbia River Gorge has a huge collection of waterfall-filled hikes, and Eagle Creek provides a beautiful tour of a bunch of them. Here’s a collection of some of my favorites! If you’re interested in hiking the trail yourself, read up on it here, and be sure to bring a tripod if you’re planning on taking photos – it’s pretty dim light in there!
Stanley Lake might be one of my absolute favorite lakes in the Sawtooth Wilderness – gorgeous any time of year, any time of day, any time of weather. Well, maybe a little scary when it’s storming, but still beautiful! Here’s a collection of my favorite photos over the years from this stunning lake.
I never did count whether there were actually a thousand of them, but the many waterfalls pouring out of seemingly nowhere into the Snake River Canyon outside Hagerman, Idaho, are pretty stunning regardless of the exact number. Take a look!
The Grand Canyon of Yellowstone National Park is just a little different than the more well-known Grand Canyon in Arizona, but it’s scarcely less majestic. It also has waterfalls and rainbows going for it, which is always a plus. Check out this collection of the beautiful canyon as seen from various sections of the park, such as Artist’s Point, Uncle Tom’s Trail, and the very brink of Lower Falls.
