I made the trip down to Olympia this past weekend to shoot the Capitol Forest Enduro for Race Cascadia. I hadn’t been down to the Capitol Forest before, so it was fun to see some new trails, and it’s always a good time figuring out the logistics of shooting the various stages. I came home sunburned, tired, and covered in about an inch of dust, but had a great time. Fun race!
Here are a few shots from the day. I’ve got a ton of other shots, so while I definitely wasn’t able to get photos of all the racers, please send me a message if you raced and are looking for a photo of yourself. I’ve got prints as well as digital downloads available- contact me for pricing. Enjoy!
