Two months ago, today, this happened… Where’s my time machine?

36 hours after taking this photo, the ex-girlfriend of one of these Amon Amarth guys gave me a ride back to Stockholm. Life can be full of surprises.

7-photo photomerge of Bumpass Hell in Lassen

Funny name, really cool place. The easy hike to Bumpass Hell has some spectacular views. Once you arrive at Bumpass Hell, it feels like you’re in another world.

Manzanita Lake in Lassen Volcanic National Park just after a thunder storm and just before sunset

@LassenNPS @Manzanita_Lake

For some, unknown reason I have spent more than 40 years of my life within 5 hours of Lassen Volcanic National Park (most of the last 17 years less than 3 hours away) and yet I had never been there (before last week). What was I thinking?

I’ve been to Yosemite many times, but in some ways Lassen is better. For starters, the crowds are far smaller.

Manzanita Lake blew me away. I couldn’t get enough of it. The views from the lake change drastically as you walk around it, and they also are quite different as the day progresses. It didn’t hurt that we had thunderstorms for brief moments each day. Pre- and post-storm clouds over the lake were awesome.

More photos of Lassen and Manzanita Lake coming soon…
