White to Night – Fresh Power on the Summit , January 23, 2015
click on images for enlargements Late Thursday afternoon as the last vestiges of the latest snow were clearing the area I thought about riding the tram up to the summit to get some photos in the late afternoon sun. The … Continue reading
A wolf in the graveyard of the volcanos, Monday, January 5, 2015
I knew that the full moon has been given names at various times, and I’ve photographed some of them in the last several years. I didn’t know that there was a name for each month’s full moon until just a … Continue reading

After a long week of bouncing between Omaha and Phoenix, I was able to hit the trails again on Saturday and Sunday. At this time of year most of the photo opportunities on the lower mountain are long gone, as … Continue reading
Bugged on the Mountain
Today I got a bit of a late start today, and seeing how I did not work out at all during the week I figured that I’d be way behind today. The fact of the matter is that I was … Continue reading
Catching up on the mountain
One of the primary reasons that my hiking lags far behind last year’s totals is that at the end of the season I experienced a rather catastrophic equipment failure. My boots that were only two years old developed a hole … Continue reading
