I'm starting scenery on my N-scale Cascade Southern RR.  I'm looking for a source of photos of the Cascade Mountains in Oregon on which I can base both my 3D landforms and my backdrop scenes.  I have done a preliminary Google search under Cascade Mountains.  Most of the photos I've found are those of the very tall snow-covered peaks in the Cascades. 

I'd appreciate it if anyone could suggest a good source of photos of the more typical less dramatic mountain ridges found in the Cascades.

I don't know what I like more about this commercial; the fact that it was done all in-camera, one take with no CGI effects or all the cool model making.  Nice to see the craft aspect of the hobby portrayed so well (the idiot hipster in the Che t-shirt at the end notwithstanding).

This is a model of the Cleveland Cliffs bulk carrier ship. It was mainly used for the hauling of raw iron ore from the loading docks in Lake Superior, to the ports in Ohio to be transported by rail to the various steel mills in Pennsylvania and Ohio. It is only about 2/3 done. The basic kit is from Bearco Marine. And the great looking decals were made by Bill Brillinger. See his website at pda.ca Please note the 3D letter c on the stack also made by Bill. Much Kiba shingles done, with more to go! Will post more pics when done.
