This airmail beacon had an acetylene powered flashing light that helped pilots keep on course. It was built in the mid-1920's and operated until early 1930's.
The beacon is on the part of Buffalo Valley called "alkali lake" (USGS 7.5' topo "Buffalo Springs NE"). Except for the missing light, it looks like it could still be used.
The Langdale Valley
A shot from Sunday morning and the stunning cloud inversion in the Langdale Valley.
I took a few various images as the light changed through the morning, but this is a handheld 9 image pano that I wanted to try.
Its a bloody huge file, but I think all the processing work as meant it has turned out not too bad;)
This was from Side Pike, a great place to view the Langdale Pikes.

Monument Valley has been featured in many forms of media since the 1930s. Director John Ford used the location for a number of his best-known films, and thus, in the words of critic Keith Phipps, "its 13 square kilometers have defined what decades of moviegoers think of when they imagine the American West." Between 1945 and 1967, the southern extent of the Monument Upwarp was mined for uranium, which occurs in scattered areas of the Shinarump Conglomerate; vanadium and copper are associated with uranium in some deposits.
Only a few small openings remain along the overgrown fence row to allow a peek to the valley below. In the past the foreground hillside was clear grazing land for cattle; it is fast returning to woods as you can see by the trees framing the bottom edge of the view.
I found myself Looking through my now ancient (2006) photos from Monument Valley, and I couldn't resist doing some editing.

Valley of Fire State Park is a public recreation and nature preservation area covering nearly 46,000 acres (19,000 ha) located 16 miles (26 km) south of Overton, Nevada. The state park derives its name from red sandstone formations, the Aztec Sandstone, which formed from shifting sand dunes 150 million years ago. These features, which are the centerpiece of the park's attractions, often appear to be on fire when reflecting the sun's rays.[5] It is Nevada's oldest state park, as commemorated with Nevada Historical Marker #150. It was designated as a National Natural Landmark in 1968.
Valley of Fire is located 50 miles (80 km) northeast of Las Vegas.

There is only one trail in Monument Valley on which tourists are allowed to hike without the supervision of a Navajo guide. The trail travels around West Mitten Butte and goes near a road which leads to nearby Navajo homes. East Mitten Butte is in the distance.
Happy Tree-mendous Tuesday!

Monument Valley (‘valle de los Monumentos’) es una gran depresión situada en la frontera sur de Utah con Arizona, en los Estados Unidos. El valle está dentro de la reserva de los nativos navajo, cerca del Monumento de las Cuatro Esquinas (Four Corners) y es accesible por la U.S. Route 163
This is the classic view when driving around the valley. We checked this out about 8am and the light was very drab but on our way to Tenaya Lake after noon the light was much better. I'm off to the Eastern Sierra very early on Monday for a few days and hope to catch some fall color.
Another shot from our trip up High Cup Nick earlier this year. We had descended down into the Valley floor, rather than retrace our steps back to Dufton and we were rewarded with a fabulous golden late light show.
The moody sky and sunset light created a great sight, the only drawback was the much longer walk back to the car at Dufton. But it was well worth it.
Forecast was for bright spells and isolated heavy showers..........the weathermen weren't wrong!!

Unsure of the mountain/fell names if anyone knows, cheers
Looks can be deceiving, what looks to be a trio of former SP SD40T-2s leading a coal train are actually manned rear helpers helping keep their 12,000 ton train in check as they head for Trona.

We're so grateful to have family, friends, and neighbors help us on harvest and crush day.
The River Ver in Hertfordshire is a chalk stream and has cut, modestly I should say, into the surrounding limestone - just enough to create a path through the Chiltern Hills, and enough for the Romans to build a road here connecting London with the North. The history of the village of Markyate is entirely shaped by this road (and its successors) and all the functions relating to the transport of goods and people. Some houses such as these ones in the foreground have crept up the flanks of the river ("Pickford Hill" in this case), but most stayed down in the valley ground. Up on the hills you would find farms and agriculture. It is also true that small industries have moved in - together with lots of interesting people who decided to leave the big city.
[aus der Wikipedia]:
Das Owens Valley ist das ca. 120 km lange Tal des Owens River im Mono und Inyo County im Süd-Osten von Kalifornien (USA). Es verläuft von Norden nach Süden zwischen der Sierra Nevada im Westen und den White Mountains im Nordosten beziehungsweise den Inyo Mountains im Südosten. Im Süden wird das Tal durch den Owens Lake, einen heute ausgetrockneten Salzsee begrenzt. Im Norden entspringt der Owens River in der Long Valley Caldera, einem vulkanischen Kratersystem. Durch das Tal führt U.S. Highway 395, an ihm liegen von Süden nach Norden Lone Pine, Independence (Sitz der Verwaltung des Inyo County), Big Pine und als größter Ort des Tals Bishop.

View of the valley from the top of one of the highest hills in Overijssel, The Netherlands.
An hour after sunrise, the mist began to clear from the valley. Light fell across the landscape, revealing colours that were muted and soft. The old oak tree seemed content to offer its crown as a stage for the morning's first performance, a song by the smallest of birds.
The morning run of Amtrak's new Valley Flyer service departs Springfield en route to Greenfield, MA. The consist for these trains resembles the other Springfield Line shuttle trains, with a single P42, amfleet coach, and cab car.
Valley is a residential and office complex in the district of Zuidas in Amsterdam. It consists of three towers of different heights (the highest is 100 m tall), The towers are located on top of the lower floors and are connected to each other by means of a 'valley' of ascending terraces. Valley was designed by Winy Maas and Piet Oudolf and completed in 2021.
