The mountain even looks majestic from above.

I spotted an aerial view of Mount Hood in Oregon shortly after departing from Seattle on a flight to Las Vegas.

The mountain had its own cloud covering its snow-capped peak one day before Spring arrived.

Final Boarding Call

Trivia time: Mount Hood is technically a volcano that is considered to be active but is temporarily dormant. It is the tallest mountain in Oregon and — with a summit elevation of 11,249 feet or 3,429 meters — its peak is the fourth highest in the Cascade Range of mountains.

Mount Hood is located approximately 50 miles or 80 kilometers east-east-southeast of Portland.

I have never been to Mount Hood — but I hope to visit it one day.
