Taken from along the eastern ridge up Heartbeat Peak in the James Peak Wilderness. James Peak is the prominent peak in the center. Unnamed seasonal tarns are the left and right most water bodies. Heart Lake is the large lake in the center and Rogers Pass Lake is between Heart and James. Mount Bancroft and Parry Peak are to the right of James.
The last semi-decent image I have from our 1981 Buck Creek Pass-Miners Ridge-Spider Gap loop hike. We camped at (lower) Lyman Lake on our last night and then went up over Spider Gap (see note) the next morning, descended into Spider Meadows and came out on the Phelps Creek Trail. A great trip!

Glacier Peak Wilderness, WA
I've always loved being outdoors in nature when it rains. Luckily my *new* camera and I were sheltered from the worst of the rain by the leafy canopy.
I finally saved up enough for my first full frame camera and the difference between this and my last camera as I'd suspected is incomparable. I'm actually so so excited about taking pictures again!
I bought this mask when I was at Wilderness festival a couple of weeks ago and the analogy seemed apt. This camera lays a path into uncharted territory..

Islands, Wilderness Lake. © Copyright 2021 G Dan Mitchell – all rights reserved.
Rocky islands with trees at a small wilderness lake in the Yosemite backcountry.
This photograph is almost a companion to the photograph I shared yesterday — same lake, same morning, similar subject, different trees, and islands instead of a peninsula this time. Once again, though, the trees on the islands and ascending the granite slopes beyond are illuminated by beautiful morning Sierra Nevada back light. To those familiar with the Sierra, this scene likely speaks of many things, but perhaps two in particular. First, is the nature of the forest — different from in many other locations, largely due to its generally more open character. (Some have proposed that the “Range of Light” name may be partially on account of this aspect of the Sierra experience.) Second, and perhaps a bit less obvious at first glance, is the evidence of glaciation. This lake was almost certainly scooped out by those forces, and the dome-like slopes beyond also suggest glacial sculpting.
As I have mentioned as recently as my previous post, I love photographing Sierra subjects — especially trees — in backlight, especially if a there is a bit of haze to produce a sense of distance between foreground and back ground and a bit of “glow” in the atmosphere. This kind of light can extend the hours for photography since it often works even when the early and late golden hour light is not present.

Wilderness wanderer
Where do you come from
Where do you go
Who have you met as you wander
Through forests green
Over mountains tall
Across ocean like prairies
And from sea to spreading sea
Your footprints span continents
Your soul reaches across galaxies
What wonders have your eyes beheld
During your travels across the infinite expanse
“Wilderness is not a luxury but a necessity of the human spirit, and as vital to our lives as water and good bread. A civilization which destroys what little remains of the wild, the spare, the original, is cutting itself off from its origins and betraying the principle of civilization itself.”

This is a different angle of the shot "A Bit of Serenity". There is a dry creek bed running alongside the river. Later on that day, the creek bed would be running full of water as the river was rising on this morning due to rains North of the area.

One of my favorite destinations in the forest. I always have the whole place to myself and the reflections are great :)

This is the trail up from Highway 900 (between Renton and Issaquah), which is labeled at the trailhead as Tiger Mountain/Squak Mountain. It gets my vote as the closest trail to the Seattle area that actually feels like you're taking a hike in the mountains -- you never see a man-made structure in the 2 miles from the highway up to Wilderness Peak.
From our home in the Seward Park area, it takes 15-20 minutes to get here, so if you just do Wilderness Peak and move quickly, it can be a 2-hour round trip. There are access points to Cougar Mountain and Squak Mountain that are a little closer to Seattle, but the ones I've seen don't have this combination of uphill grade and solitude.
The summit ridge of Hoyt Peak marks the boundary between Yellowstone National Park and Shoshone National Forest's Washakie Wilderness. Washakie led the Eastern Shoshone for most of his 90-95 years, successfully retaining the Wind River country for his people. As it turns out, the drainage here is named for the Crow (Apsaalooke), who often warred with the Shoshone.
