The wind was incredibly strong, so strong, so strong. Strong enough to blow your hat right off.

We took a few photos in the light rain, marking our visit.

Actually, if it had been a sunny day with blue skies and white clouds, the views from this lookout would have captured the magnificent depth of nature quite nicely. I feel like this park has been here for thousands, tens of thousands of years, always in this spot. Here, it's as if time stands still.
