"Climb the mountains and get their good tidings. Nature's peace will flow into you as sunshine flows into trees. The winds will blow their own freshness into you, and the storms their energy, while cares will drop away from you like the leaves of Autumn.” John Muir
Cloudy fall day on the Western Slope, Colorado. Most of the leaves have fallen, but there is still a little light on the mountainside.

We climb to heaven most often on the ruins of our cherished plans, finding our
failures were successes.

While in Jim Thorpe for a long weekend I had one major photographic goal that did not involve the Reading and Northern. Norfolk Southern still has a limited presence in the area continuing to own their upper Lehigh Line from Allentown to Leighton then sharing the RofW and owning one of two mains from there to Jim Thorpe and on up through the Lehigh Gorge to Penn Haven. At that point the Lehigh Line continues north, under the sole ownership and operation of RBMN, while the NS' Ashmore Secondary climbs the grade to Weatherly and Hazleton.
For the last five years the upper Lehigh Line has seen nothing but local freights, and north of Lehighton they have operated almost exclusively at night. However a recent schedule change has seen NS running local H66 in daylight on Sundays making a late morning turn north from Allentown to Hazleton and back. A pair of SD60Es are seen leading four cars on the Hazleton Running Track (the westward other than main track continuation of the Ashmore Secondary) at about MP 142.3 on rails of the former Lehigh Valley Railroad's Wyoming Divison. This area was once laced with a mind boggling maze of trackage and at one time this particular line which was built by the LV in 1871 was double tracked to support the flood of anthracite coal flowing out of area mines. While vastly diminished, there is still a limited market for anthracite and several mines remain active though today they are all open pit strip mines with no active underground mines.
