Tangalle is a small town in the south of Sri Lanka. West of Tangalle is more sedate, with the two luxury first-class hotels Amanwella and Ananthara. East of Tangalle is Tangalle Beach, which has been developed by backpackers for several years. Accordingly, the beach there is a very lively party mile with many young people spread out among the numerous beach restaurants. I took the picture on this beach.
On the wide shot of the panel where this glyph is, Curt mentioned that it reminded him of a backpacker with a hiking pole, hence the name.
I like the little voodoo-looking face mask guy, too.

On a dull and wet day, these backpackers provide some bright colour as they walk in front of one of the oldest trees in the Royal Tasmanian Botanical Gardens. That's the Arthur Wall (1829) in the background.

A backpacker navigates a high bend along the Toiyabe Crest, hood drawn to protect from sun and wind, as our eyes fly northward along the spine of the Toiyabe Range, Arc Dome Wilderness, Nevada.
Although the sun is shining brightly at this point in the day, as seems to be the case with so many of my recent autumn backcountry adventures, the clouds visible here were harbingers of less enticing weather blowing in from further west. Our vantage from over 11,000 feet (3,400 meters) along the Crest afforded an unobstructed view toward the Sierra Nevada range in California, and the distant Sierra appeared to be casting a wall of grey cloud coming slowly but inexorably in our direction. Fretting about the weather while the sun yet shines does not accomplish much, and it was in this spirit that we absorbed the view and embraced the wind. At the very least there was little risk of overheating.
When you love the wilderness but you’re also ‘indoorsy’. Where do you fall on the spectrum?
This is a forced perspective shot with a small diorama sitting on a picnic table at Fort Rock State Park. Pure serendipity that the dirt on my dio matched the natural surrounding soil so well.

Typical scenes from an airport.
People resting, waiting, hurrying.
Stressed, excited, jetlagged.
Waiting for whats up to come.
