The view of the western side of Cypress Island from a top of the island. The hike up to this majestic place was a mile high hike up a cutback trail through a dark deep wooden thick forest to a small clearing high above Cypress Island. Just before this photo was taken, Patrick and I saw a bald eagle flying over this area. We were at awe on how quickly the great bird flew from one side of the island to the other. Cypress Island, Puget Sound, WA.
