Nice set of pictures. Is #1 and #9 taken at Viento state park outside of Hood River Oregon? Love the B/W in last shot.

A lot of mixed scales there. I see O Gauge, HO and even Z
A lot of Woodland Scenic too.
Great scenery!
Go

My apologies for the confusion. I should've included in the initial header/description like I did for Part One that all of the included photos were indeed taken at Viento. Any photos in future Parts not taken at Viento will be noted as such in the photo captions.
