An Maynooth bound 2900 Dmu crosses the Ryewater Aqueduct on the approach to Leixlip Louisa Bridge station, Co kildare.
The aqueduct which nowadays is a fairly anonymous and hidden feature was a daunting engineering project of it's day. It is essentially a massive 80m high earth embankment that crosses the small Rye river which flows through a tunnel Culvert below in the valley. The viaduct took six years and a third of the canal company capital to build in the 1790's and originally only carried the Royal Canal. The MGWR added the railway as they bought the canal as a easy already surveyed route west, opening from Broadstone, Dublin (Now closed) to Mullingar in 1848.
In recent years as train speeds have got faster the tight twisting curves of building alongside the canal have inhibited higher speed upgrades then the present levels.
I'd forgotten that this was on my little
Pano. This was the view from just up the road as I gave the dogs an evening stroll.
Yesterday It was Jerry's rl birthday and it was an awesome one. After all the things we did, it was nice to go on evening boat ride and snuggle. Happy birthday my love.

This pack trip, now almost a decade behind me, was a different sort of trip in several ways. We began on the east side of the range in a high valley south of Mount Whitney. This was in an area that we had visited in the past, and on one occasions I spent several days going up and down an unmaintained pass until we finally all got together and climbed a nearby 14,000' peak. On the trip where I made the photograph we started out at the same trailhead but then skirted a bit south to cross the crest on a more popular trail. A bit further along to the west we left the main trail to visit a nearby lake, found a cross-country route out of its cirque, walked up a long valley to another lake, and camped there. I made the photograph on the evening of our arrival, looking back at tall ridges lining the valley we had ascended to get here.
There rest of the trip was unusual and special, too. On the next morning we skirted the lake and then headed up to find an unmarked route over a steep pass, dropping down abruptly from its summit into a long granite valley with several lakes. A day later we arrived at the usual west side route towards Mount Whitney. We stopped for lunch and moved on, heading north on the John Muir Trail. Eventually we crossed one of my favorite high spots along this trail and then descended to the junction with the trail over Shepherds Pass. We hung out in this area for a few days, investigating some more remote areas of the Upper Kern drainage before returning to this spot and then heading out over Shepherd Pass.

Evening Fog rolled in and settled over the water at the opening to the bigger lake behind. It was so very quiet, no wind, no birds, just silence. And the silence was amazing.
