These are photos from back country skiing in the Washington Cascades and British Columbia and

kayaking on the rivers and sea near Washington state.  These are from the 1980s and 1990s, mostly

late 1980s.  I didn't use a camera as much while kayaking and skiing because of the wetness factor.

So there aren't nearly as many of these as of climbing photos.
