Cascade Lakes Scenic Byway Oregon - Globetrotting Diaries

This is the final part of our Oregon Road Trip. The byway passes through central Oregon around the beautiful Cascade mountains. This byway gave us a glimpse of the real natural scenery of Oregon state. The volcanic and glacial landscape is full of  unbelievable diversity. Amazing views with snow capped mountains, magnificent Mt. Bachelor, dozens of crystal clear emerald lakes, the evergreens, the fresh mountain streams, the peaceful atmosphere and beauty of calm, sweet & relaxing mysterious silence! Every corner was screaming silently the nature's abundant beauty. 
Here are the Scenes-
