From Okanogan to Mazama

This area  has apple and cherry orchards and this reminds me of the similar areas in Michigan.  The apple orchards are in my area of SE Michigan and the cherries are famous in the Traverse City in the NW part of the Lower Peninsula (Mitten) of Michigan.  I feel somewhat at home.

Cherries picked and ready to eat.

I am also seeing cattle grazing fields.

I enjoyed the forested areas.

The Methow River is a tributary of the Columbia River.

The Chewuch River which means creek in the native tongue of the Columbia-Moses.

Twisp has a population of around 900 and the elevation is 1637'.

 Most town in this area are located on a river.  There is smokejumper station between Twisp and Winthrop.

Winthrop embraces a "Wild West" look. I like it!

Outside Mazama. No services from here to Newhalem. I will stop here.

I rustic spot.
