As I was leaving my favorite little beach area I spotted this little boy climbing. I was pretty far away using 280mm setup. I thought " I can run and catch him but I'd probably distract him and make him fall" so I snapped these few shots and retreated back out of his sight for a minute. Then I packed up and walked past and he was standing at the top, so I just walked past and acted like everything is normal! His Mom was right around the corner and I chatted for a moment. She said he always plays here and cant keep him off! I'm glad my kids are grown and past the falling off things stage! But we allways worry don't we !!!!! ? :)
Stockdale High School (Stockdale, Texas) student, eighteen year old Meghan Conaway, climbs the Army Values Rock Climbing Tower at the Army Strong Zone. The Army Strong Zone is a 129,000 square foot area designed to immerse visitors in the opportunities and technology of the Army, and the daily lives of Soldiers in a variety of jobs. Set up at San Antonio's Sunset Station, the Army Strong Zone neighbors the Alamodome and is one of the many activities associated with the U.S. Army All-American Bowl taking place outside the stadium.

Schiehallion (Scottish Gaelic: Sìdh Chailleann) is a prominent mountain in Perth and Kinross, Scotland. Schiehallion has a rich botanical life, interesting archaeology, and a unique place in scientific history for an 18th-century experiment in 'weighing the world'. Erosion on the popular footpath led to extensive path repairs in 2001.
Schiehallion lies between Loch Tay and Loch Tummel, 10 miles north of Aberfeldy in Perthshire. The mountain (3547ft/1083m) is isolated from other peaks and has an almost perfect conical shape from the west. The view of the broad eastern flank attracts many visitors to the shores of Loch Tummel.
Schiehallion is sometimes described as the centre of Scotland. The justification is that the line of latitude midway between the most northerly and southerly points on the Scottish mainland, and the line of longitude midway between the most easterly and westerly points, intersect very near the summit of Schiehallion.

Considering climbing Schiehallion as a short warm-up like walk before Ben Nevis, we were actually wrong; it was quite tough and effort consuming... but worth the journey!
Sometimes people just want to look fancy. On Tuesday, Sportrock Alexandria offered a chance to do just that with their sixth annual Penguin Climb on April 15. At the event, both ladies and gentlemen are encouraged to dig deep through their closets to find their “best” formal wear to come climb.
Who says that prom dresses can only be worn once? Though after climbing in it, there is a chance that dress may never be worn again. Though, this year, it’s been re-branded as Tux Day, in honor of 1040s everywhere.

A climbing sand dune just north of Racetrack Playa.
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
Racetrack Playa was the highlight of my trip to Death Valley. The "racetrack" itself is a playa (Spanish for beach), which means that it is a dry lake, which fills with water from time to time. Racetrack Play itself is famous for its "sailing rocks". They were first observed in "motion" in 2014. The researchers who observed the movement found that ice that forms over the playa in the winter break apart and hit the rocks on the playa as they are blown in the wind. The force from the wind-blown ice causes the rocks to move across the playa and leave their infamous race tracks.
