adventures inspired by curiosity> Navigation & to adventures inspired by curiosity>Navigation & topography are omg of my favorite challenges, so I spent a little while using the approximate position of the plane heading into Seattle, the video I’d taken, and topographical maps (no Google!!) to see if I could find a hike up to the pretty blue rock flour lake I could see from the plane.Needless to say I found the lake and it was just as pretty to visit by foot, and such a fun challenge to find a place without using guidebooks, apps, or blogs✨This is an established hike, but in the spirit of curiosity, see if you can figure out where it is on your own using good old-fashioned maps & geology (ie, where are there rock flour lakes?!) Thanks @itsevajane for coming on this wild goose chase with me :)Videos unedited & shot on an iPhone 8📍 Traditional homelands of the Snohomish, Snoqualmie, and Chelan Indigenous People
