Thanks, Eggs. I wouldn't have had a hope without your input.

My experience on Everett was a bit more scrub and alot less pastoral land. Though it was about 10years ago.

Is it loyetea?

We are in the NW, and that is Black Bluff in the cloud, but not from either of those peaks.

Doesn't look like you are very high. I haven't had the pleasure but are you sitting on 1 of three brothers?
