spacer, Yep, they are the Cascades. The second image is looking towards Mount Rainier, which itself looks like a big cloud on the horizon.
midtskogen, that's an awesome project! The data look amazingly clean, and it's interesting to see the variability due to ventilation, and snow cover! I'm really curious about what's going on between precipitation rate and radiation count.
Dang, I wish I still had my uni access to journals right now. This is really cool -- they're saying that the counts are not only correlated to precipitation rate, but that the proportionality even depends on whether it is rain or snow, and even the type of snow crystal! Which makes sense for particles being adsorbed onto surfaces of varying shape.
Another timelapse (4K). This one took about 2 days to complete for my computer, so things aren't superoptimised, and it also took quite a few hours to download the source video from the site (radio link).
Although not as much of a project as it is a Experiment, A few years back, I decided to see what could happen if space lightning hit a planet very earth-like, using the Powder Toy. The brush size was slightly bigger than the planet's moon, making the actual space lightning about the size of the Empire State Building. It, in 1 strike, destroyed a city. I then struck 5 times with the brush in the same spot. It made a huge crater. The pressure released destroyed a space station. That was where I closed the simulation. But what happened after the space stations destruction would be pretty interesting. What would happen is the Molten Stone would fill the crater and be forced into a spherical shape. It would harden and then form a new continenent. EDIT: in case your saying "Damn, he's stupid" I only said that so you could see how wrong I was.

Watsisname, Looks cool area! i like how there is still some snow left even in the middle of the summer. high mountains areas are the best in my opinion, for me its most beautiful landscape. for Comparison, here mount hermon (highest mountain here) at winter and summer:
