Probably Mt Pourri, but I stand to be corrected. From the route to la Pagne.

View of the Victorian Alps from Mt Skene. The foreground stands of dead Eucalyptus pauciflora (snow gums) trees were destroyed by previous fires. An ever present feature of our “wide brown land”.

No private cars are allowed to drive in this area. Only restricted quota of bus seats are allowed everyday to protect the wildlife and surrounding area at Lake O'Hara in British Columbia's Yoho National Park. I do not need a bus to enjoy nature, I just hiked. It is 11 km one way but every kilometre was worth it!

Two mountain goats Oreamnos americanus graze in a mountain meadow along the Beartooth Hiway in the Beartooth Mountains of Wyoming. Though not native to Wyoming, these goats (Oreamnos americanus) descended from small groups introduced to the Beartooth and Absaroka Mountains in the 1940s and 1950s. They were brought in from western Montana where they are native. Some consider the species a compliment to the ecosystem. As their numbers grow, others worry about the effect of the goats on the alpine vegetation and the native mountain sheep population. Regardless of the concern that always accompanies introduced species, It is always fun to see them.

This one visit us in the winter, and we could manage to take much better photos than this one (notice the ISO 12800 with a non particular good camera), but for the sake of completeness... I didn't want to leave it out!

This is a sunset shot taken at the glacier lake at the foot of mount Clariden. By now this alpine paradise has become pretty famous among landscape photographers. One of the reasons is that the lake is relatively quickly accessible from the nearby Klausen mountain pass. Probably due to the strong breeze that evening, I nonetheless could enjoy this amazing place by myself...unlike yesterday evening, where an other handful of photographers gathered along the waterside to capture the best moments of the sunset.

Thanks for watching!

It's one of the biggest alpine meadows in Julian Alps and also very beautiful. Now of course almost all shepherds huts have been converted into weekend huts.

As we enter the Triglav National Park, this cart-road should convert into a hikers trail. That's how once it was. But forest workers don't care about the national park. With their roads and cutting trees they are devastating nature and and also the bureaucrats of the park don't care. Actually they perhaps must benefit of that crime.

On traditional alpine huts like this one, family members used to spend their summers high up in the mountains, looking after the animals grazing there. I found this particular hut especially beautiful, though I’m not sure whether it still serves its original purpose.
