Palouse

The Palouse is an area of southwest Washington State that was formed during the last ice-age.  Wind blown loess, a sandy loam, forms an undulating landscape of fertile soil.  The area is now predominantly wheat agricultural land that changes color with the season from bright green of new growth to brown of plowed fields.  I’ve been to the Palouse many times, here is a selection taken from along the roads to the top of Steptoe butte.
