A westbound Santa Fe freight climbs Ash Hill at Klondike, California, while crossing the Mojave Desert on March 9, 1995. Powering the train is GE C40-8W No. 851, GE C44-9W No. 610 and EMD SD45-2B No. 5514.
Overshadowed by her marginally higher neighbour, Bidean Nam Bian, to which she is connected by means of a col just a few meters too high to give her Munro status, Stob Coire nan Lochan is most often just used as a stopping point with a nice view for Munro baggers trying to bag Bidean and Sgreamhach in a wee round.
Too bad, in my opinion, as this mountain, still one of the tallest in Argyll, offers lots of interesting climbing on it's north face, and short walk-in times from the main road. The crags start at around 830-850 meters, and go right up to the pyramid-shaped summit.
Rock around here is mainly rhyolithic/andesite lava, with a granite core because this used to be the centre of the Glen Coe caldera. Because the centre of this ancient supervolcano (think Yellowstone) lies right around the Three Sisters, anyone interested in geology as well as climbing is going to have the time of their life here. The summit of Stob Coire nan Lochan consists almost entirely out of rare Andesite pillars, and the bottom of the coire itself cuts into the granite of the old magmachamber.
A westbound Burlington Northern Santa Fe freight train climbs Raton Pass at Gallinas, Colorado, on February 26, 1999, led by Santa Fe GE C40-8W No. 911 still looking pretty good in the railroad’s famous warbonnet livery.
Climb the mountain and get their good tiding, nature peace will flow into you as sunrise flows into trees, the wind will blow their own freshness and storm their energy while cares will drop away from you like the leaves of spring

Small springtime white flowers in the warm sunshine, with an even tinier insect making the most of this early food source.
The climb up the Niagara escarpment begins for both of these trains. CP 247-31 ascends the 2% percent grade up the Hamilton sub as CN A43531-31 starts to climb the grade to Copetown. Sometimes the stars align and things work out. Not a bad way to end 2020. Cheers to health, happiness, and prosperity in 2021!
The next five day's I will be over to the other side of the country for my real life job.
So no second life, no taking pictures.and not posting.
This will be the case for four weeks on weekday's.
With a Second Life inventory exploding with stuff to show I have to let real life get my full priority.
In the meantime have fun while you shop until you drop.

67010 makes a fine sight as it climbs the bank at Llanellen heading for Cardiff. I wanted to grab another Class 67 working here before the foliage really gets going. 1V46 14:30 Manchester Piccadilly to Cardiff Central.

In the rose garden at the Ringling Museum. It was not the best day to photograph the roses because they had just been cut back and fertilized for the growing season, but I managed to find a few to capture.

I obtained this surreal view of Utah Lake in the distance below by climbing a mountain in my truck. Quads and side-by-sides were surprised that a truck made it there. Although not very deep, the water is an unusual color and has a bacteria growth that deters swimming.
Zoom in to see the snow-covered mountain peak in the distance.

Some ideas are better in my head than in the actual execution. I guess that is why I keep working at it every day. How is it that some days I feel like I've never picked up a camera before or edited an image? Hoping your rainbows are easing to conquer than mine were today.
