Return drive is always painful as there is back to back traffic. I reached home a little after 4:00pm marking the end of a quick drive of 100 km round trip.

Sunday Drive (4/27/25) drive to Stevens Pass, Washington.
Last Sunday, I had a few hours to kill in the afternoon and also saw that weather was nice. Sunny and cold and I checked the weather at the location I wanted to go- Stevens Pass which is around 60 miles (100kms) from home and about 1-hour drive. It was showing sunny so I decided to head out for a nice drive and fly the drone for a bit.
Left home around Noon’sh and reached a little after 1pm and entire drive was fabulous and exhilarating as I put the BMW through its paces after a real long time. Entire route was like back-roads with multiple cornering opportunities which the BMW took with aplomb.
Reached Stevens Pass and I was a bit disappointed for two reasons 1.) There was literally no snow- 2.) It became super cloudy.
This is a magical place during winters and is one of the most popular skiing destinations in Washington (out of the 25+ Ski Resorts we have here). Whenever I have a few hours (3-4 hours), I do a fast drive to Stevens Pass and come back home. It feels liberating after this drive.
I decided not to spent too much time as it was cloudy. So I took out the drone and practiced a bit and flew it till the battery was nearly over (about 60-odd mins) and then packed and drove back home.

Drone’ing in the mountains. It needs a lot of practice to control this airship..lol!
Do you spot something “desirable” in this picture?
Stevens Pass from up and above- Not used to seeing it so bare bones.
Never get bored of this view.
Beautiful route all through.
Base camp, Stevens Pass. From here folks take ski rides to the mountains for their ski-runs.
Plenty of cornering opportunities.
