Yvonne Prater

YVONNE PRATER, a resident of Ellensburg, Wash., has been outdooring most of her adult life, hiking and snowshoeing in the Cascades, Rockies and White mountains. And, while out exploring, Yvonne has made a profitable habit of takin photographs and compiling information for the illustrated articles she's had published in Sunset, National Parks and numerous other outdoor magazines. A writer-photographer for the Ellensburg Record for over 22 years, Yvonne also regularly contributes photographs to The Seattle Times and other area newspapers. She is the author of the book Snoqualmie Pass: From Indian Trail to Interstate, a regional history also published by The Mountaineers Books.
