This impressive peak literally "jumps out" at you when seen as it essentially stands alone, proud and majestic.
"Chief Mountain (Blackfoot: Ninaistako) (9,085 feet (2,769 m)) is located in Montana on the eastern border of Glacier National Park and the Blackfeet Indian Reservation. The mountain is one of the most prominent peaks and rock formations along the Rocky Mountain Front, a 200 mi (320 km) long overthrust fault, known as the Lewis Overthrust, which extends from central Montana into southern Alberta, Canada.
The peak is easily seen from Montana and Alberta due to the rapid 5,000-foot (1,500 m) altitude gain over the Great Plains which are immediately east of the mountain." Wikipedia
Enjoy a terrific Tuesday!

Cape Kiwanda State Natural Area is a state park in Pacific City, Oregon, United States. Cape Kiwanda is on the Three Capes Scenic Route, which includes Cape Meares and Cape Lookout. Hiking to the top of Cape Kiwanda allows views of Nestucca Bay to the south and Cape Lookout to the north.
A sea stack, named Chief Kiawanda Rock (note different spelling than Cape Kiwanda) is located 1⁄2 mile southwest of the cape. It is one of three features along the Oregon Coast that are called "Haystack Rock," though the one in Cannon Beach is more widely known.
The "Pedestal Rock" is on a notorious sandstone bluff at Cape Kiwanda State Natural Area, which is fenced off and bordered by signs warning people not to go there. It is extremely dangerous but combating the allure of that perfect picture can be difficult.
We find unloading of the car ferry Chief Wawatam of her usual assortment of western lumber loads mixed with cars from northern Michigan. The Detroit and Mackinac RS3m 975 with her pair of 40' gondola idler cars works the Chief at Mackinaw City, Michigan on November 10, 1978.
Arches National Park, Moab
The word architect comes from two Greek words "chief" and "creator". When I saw these wonders, I was thinking, why wouldn't we give at least the same credit to the architect of these arches as we do to the architects of manmade wonders?

Chief Joseph Mountain and the north end of Wallowa Lake near Joseph, OR. It's not hard to see why the Nez Perce band led by Chief Joseph did not want to leave the Wallowa valley. This led to the Nez Perce War of 1877. Much has been written about events leading up to the conflict and the mistreatment of the Nez Perce. A decent summary can be found on Wikipedia: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nez_Perce_War
Before cars consisted mainly of plastics. Oddly enough these were produced ('back in the days') when auto manufacturers were truly artisans, in my hometown, Pontiac Michigan.

Chief Mountain is one of the most prominent peaks along the Rocky Mountain Front. The peak is seen from Montana and Alberta.
Summit Chief Mtn, as viewed from Williams Lake. This was taken on the same long ago trip on which we climbed Mt. Daniel, and did a few short hikes from base camps. FYI - That's not our tent, as we didn't camp here. Scan of a 35mm Kodachrome 25 slide.

Custom built Master Chief HALO minifigure.
I bought this customized armor & helmet from a local supplier in Australia, though he does not leave any info regarding who makes these. Can anyone recognize these pieces & maybe let me know who made this cast?
Anyhow, I built the rest of him, added details & painted it.

As of late I've been receiving quite a few requests for photo prints. So, with my wife's "gentle" urging, I've opened up my own little print sales shop on Etsy where this photo is one of the first I posted. If interested, you can find the direct link to this photo here:
www.etsy.com/listing/242577839/chief-pontiac?ref=shop_hom...
...or to my shop homepage here:

I don't have many photos uploaded at this time (getting a little shop like this up and running is much more work than i would have thought) but I will be uploading some future photos as well as going back through my catalog to pluck out some of my "oldies but goodies"
Thanks
Early morning at Jasper, Alberta - This distinctive mountain (Called Bon Homme) appears to look like a Chief lying on his back. This was the view from my hotel bedroom.

Amtrak's Southwest Chief had just departed Fort Madison and was approaching the Mississippi River crossing on a cloudy day in 1995.
When Amtrak used equipment that matched, it looked pretty nice. Unfortunately, when Amtrak decided to go with that bland Phase V paint on their locomotives, the equipment no longer matched the power.
