It’s probably no real surprise, but Cushman & Wakefield recently reported that the life science industry was a driving force behind commercial real estate investment in San Diego and elsewhere in 2018 and is likely to perform well in 2019.

Of the 13 volcanoes in the Cascade mountain range that extends from British Columbia to Northern California, Mt. Adams in SW Washington is the second highest only to Mt. Rainier and second in volume behind Mt. Shasta. (Where my dog Shasta is from). It is located in a vast remote area with over 61,000 acres of designated wilderness. In addition to that the Yakima Nation owns over 21,000 acres below on the eastern side.
Running right along the side of Mt. Adams and going about halfway up is the Pacific Crest Trail. It is 2659 miles long and runs from Canada to Mexico.
