Der Alpine A110 ist ein Sportwagen des französischen Autoherstellers Alpine, der von 1962 bis 1977 hergestellt wurde. Er entstand als Weiterentwicklung des A108 Berlinette und wurde viele Jahre im internationalen Renn- und Rallyesport erfolgreich eingesetzt. Die bekanntesten Erfolge sind die Siege in der Rallye Monte Carlo, der Gewinn der Europameisterschaft im Rallyesport und der Gewinn der Rallye-Weltmeisterschaft (1971 und 1973).

Satuday 24th August 2019 saw the Rugby League Challenge Cup Final take place at Wembley Stadium featuring St Helens vs Warrington Wolves followed by the 1895 Cup Final between Sheffield Eagles and Widnes Vikings. This ensured a good turn out of coaches from those areas with no less than 150 parking up in the Yellow parking zone, a further 40 in the Orange zone and around another 20 in the Pink zone.
I took a good selection of the Yellow zone arrivals which saw examples of bodywork from 20 different manufacturers ranging from Barbi to Yutong.

True alpine tundra communities are found at only the highest elevations on the Colorado Plateau, generally above 12,000 feet. Here only specially-adapted tundra species are able to grow in the harsh climate. Winds are frequently strong, snowfall can be heavy, and the growing season is short, in some areas only thirty days annually. To avoid strong winds and retain precious heat absorbed from the ground or attained through solar radiation, tundra species are commonly small, miniaturized, ground-hugging plants, such as prostrate woody shrubs (commonly willows), herbs, lichens and mosses.
Drove up to about 13,000 feet in a jeep on the roads cut by the gold miners in the 1800's. This was simply breathtaking to see from up top. The colors of the mountains are caused by oxidation of the metal ore that is contained within.

The lighting can be lovely up on the alpine tundra after sunset, but the temperatures sure can get cold! 30 second exposure.
I hope I got the name of the car right.

"Inspired by Alpine’s rich heritage, the A110 places driving pleasure front and centre. The mid-engined, two-seater sports car takes Alpine’s core principles - agility, compact size and lightweight build - and deploys them with modern day expertise. In its element both on the racetrack and a winding mountain road, the A110 is still refined and effortless to use every day."

Trees in the alpine face a harsh life but here is an amazing example of how resilient they are in the harshest conditions.

Finished! I love it to so much; it's so comfy and elegant! :D I debuted it at Stitches West today and it got some compliments. Thanks to my boyfriend for the photos.
Another gorgeous autumn day ... so here's another gorgeous autumn image. At least, that's how I remember it.
The beauty of Denali NP is that there are very few designated hiking trails. There are a few social trails, but most are "DIY" (Do It Yourself) and lead the adventurous hiker into the wilderness and pristine, perhaps even untouched areas. See, this park is so enormous is size and with so much wilderness, they say that you can take your own DIY hike, sit down, perhaps in a place that no one had ever sat down at before, and get a view of your very own. It's amazing to think about.
So this year, we were a bit curious by the creation of a new designated trail - The Savage Alpine Trail - which runs from the Savage Alpine Trailhead to the Mountain Vista Trailhead. The trail is 4-mi one way, consisting of compact gravel, native soil, and stones, and a 1,200 foot elevation change. On years past we've seen various wildlife in that area, so we thought we would give it a shot on that bluebird day.
Wow, it had some of the most incredible views ... and it was so invigorating and inspiring. Along the way we encountered ptarmigan and heard from others of sightings of dall sheep, though we never did see them close up - just very, very distant.
This was the type of hike where I had a hard time getting anywhere because I kept stopping to try to capture its beauty with my lens. The mountains, the views, the fall colors, the changing landscape lines, the snow, the sky ... it was all sensational. It's a hike that I would do again and again I'm sure, for years to come. Don't miss it if you're ever out that way.
Thanks so much for stopping by to view and especially for sharing your thoughts and comments with us.
