Late afternoon leaf-peeping led me to South Lake on the edge of the John Muir Wilderness in the Eastern Sierras.

 

As the sun was starting to play hide and seek with the clouds, I decided that hiking further onto the Bishops Pass Trail was probably not going to yield much, so I loitered around the trailhead looking for interesting compositions. I like how this wide angle, including Hurd Peak worked out from this vantage.

 

With several years of la Niña plaguing Southern California, South Lake is extremely low. The cafe and pontoon boat proprietor at Sabrina Lake told me they haven't been able to put boats in South Lake for three years, and this coming winter looks like another dry one. These clouds, despite being a nuisance for photography produced no rain.

Looking down from California Pass on the hidden jewel, Lake Como. I was standing at 12,840 ft and gasping for air. You can see my jeep road to the summit called the Animas Loop. Priceless view of the San Juan Mountains. Yes, there is still snow from last winter on the mountain side.

I thought this morning was going to be a washout as the skies were not looking good - but I stuck it out and was rewarded

Yemen - Mi trovavo in un ostello in alta montagna (si chiamano funduk). Un posto spartano dove alla sera, dopo cena, coloro che facevano i camerieri, i cuochi, gli inservienti (tutti rigorosamente uomini) si trasformavano in danzatori. E che danzatori!

Che meravigliose melodie e quanta eleganza e passione per le usanze della loro terra! :)

 

In questi e nei prossimi giorni saró impegnatissima nei preparativi per il viaggio che ci porterá in Madagascar. Perdonate se avró poco tempo per voi e le vostre foto...

While my computer is out being fixed I have been exploring Colorado. This is from early one morning on Kebler Pass in the San Juan Mountains.

Winnats Pass, Derbyshire. Couldn't get here for sunrise or sunset, but at least the wind and clouds obliged by allowing a long exposure to blur in the right direction...

This is the exit point of the Wire Pass trail (which passes through a narrow slot canyon) at the conjunction where it enters Buckskin Gulch in Utah's Grand Staircase-Escalante National Monument. I love walking in slot canyons. Note the hiker near the far wall for scale.

Common ?

The poor campers below have just given up trying to erect their tent in the strong breeze. I couldn't help feeling they had chosen the wrong spot, as the wind was rushing up the valley and being channeled into Scandale Pass. And their tent was a very high sided affair.

The slopes of Red Screes are on the left and High Crag and Low Crag on the eastern edge of the Fairfield horseshoe on the right. The lake in the distance is Windermere.

Looking down the long winding road of Honister Pass in the Lake District as it follows the river to Buttermere in the distance. Taken from the top of the pass next to Honister slate mine to which you can see some of the workings on the left hand mountain side. This is well worth the visit and very interesting in the mine itself.
