Took this one near a waterfall off a service road at the base of Mt. Rainier.

One thing to love about banana slugs: the name is a perfect description of the color (sometimes) and size. The picture doesn't really put it completely into context, but these mofos are huge! They can grow up to 26 cm/10 inches long!

Also some of them have dark spots, just like an overripe banana!

(Not my photo sadly, as I've never seen a spotted one in the wild, but they're out there!)

Very cool! Now I want to go back and see if I can find some variants!
