Some friends of mine and myself just completed a successful hike of the entire Maryland Heights trail this past Saturday (11/19/16). The entire hike is 5.3 miles and you rise in elevation by 1,600 feet! In hindsight, I'm shocked that I came up with the idea to hike this as I'm not in the best "hiker" shape, and this was a pretty intense hike.
There are two separate, but linked trails that you can hike. One is shorter and leads to the overlook that I took this shot from. Then there is a longer, more challenging trail that leads to the top of Maryland Heights where there are the remains of a Union Army fort there. We hiked to the extreme top first, then on our way back down, went to the overlook. By the time we went down the overlook trail, my gas tank was running on empty and I barely had enough power to hike back to where we started. Numerous breaks were necessary!
When I took this shot, the overlook was being assaulted by extreme winds. I was being pelted in the face by dust, dirt, pebbles and even leaves. Almost all of it stung when it impacted skin. It was also a challenge to stay still to take some shots. This one I snapped with my phone, but I plan to upload more that I took with the Nikon soon.

I have several pics to play with and probably upload from my D90, but this is one shot I took with my Note 4 at the New River Gorge Bridge in West Virginia. If you haven't seen this bridge, but can get there someday, do it! It's pretty impressive to see in person. The architecture of the bridge just draws your eyes to it immediately.
There is a welcome center right beside the bridge where there are multiple places to see the bridge from overlooks. Be ready to walk a lot of steps to get to the overlook that this shot was taken from! The info at the bridge says that a Washington Monument and two Statue of Liberty's could be stacked on top of each other and there would still be 20 feet to spare to reach the bridge from the river below. I've been to "Bridge Day" at this bridge where they close one side of the bridge to allow for foot traffic, and they allow BASE jumpers to jump and parachute to a landing area below. So, next time you're in southern West Virginia, be sure to stop and check this bridge out!
Sant Miquel Xic és una antiga casa de Sant Feliu de Codines de la que actualment només en queden algunes restes de parets, un safareig i algunes altres estructures esparses, en una zona situada al costat d'un torrent que presenta diversos salts i gorgs. Des de l'emplaçament de la casa, un corriol permet remuntar el torrent dels Horts i, al cap de poc, es troba l'inici d'un canal que marxa cap a llevant mig penjat sobre alguns arcs, avui envaït per la vegetació.
