Rocky Mountains National Park (misnamed “Rocky Mountain National Park” by the American federal government) is part of Colorado's Front Range. The mountains in this area are part of the true Rocky Mountains. The American Rockies are subdivided into three physiographic provinces - the Southern Rockies, the Middle Rockies, and the Northern Rockies. This park is part of the Southern Rocky Mountains Physiographic Province, which has mountain ranges cored by Precambrian-aged igneous and metamorphic rocks.
Seen above is Ypsilon Mountain in the Mummy Range. The rocks here are principally late Paleoproterozoic-aged (1.713 Ga) biotite schists and gneisses.
Locality: Ypsilon Mountain, Mummy Range, northern Rocky Mountains National Park, northern Colorado, USA
The old rifle range in the basement of the Armory, where the National Guard used to have target practice, is now sometimes home to particularly hilarious/weird porn shoots (according to our tour guide).

The Cavalry are conducting exercises on the multipurpose range complex training. More than 3,000 New Jersey Army National Guard Soldiers - more than half of the combat strength of the force - is participating in the eXportable Combat Training Capability (XCTC) rotation from May 20 through June 9. The XCTC replicates combat conditions to provide high quality training for Army Brigade Combat Teams to ensure the units are prepared for future deployments. Most of the Soldiers training at Fort Pickett are members of New Jersey's largest unit the 50th Infantry Brigade Combat Team, which transported more than 600 pieces of equipment by rail to the training area.

White Sands Missile Range Museum
On June 5, 1963, President John F. Kennedy visited White Sands Missile Range to watch a series of missile firings. The event was called Project MEWS which stood for "Missile Exercise White Sands."
For Kennedy's visit, the range launched seven missiles against a variety of targets, including another missile, a hillside and several remotely controlled jet aircraft.
To do this, the Army moved the president from Holloman to the White Sands main post and to two different launch complexes before flying him via helicopter to El Paso. You might expect such a happening to take most of a day. Not so.
According to the official itinerary, from the point where Kennedy touched down on the main post to the time he flew away from the missile range was only 139 minutes -less than 2 1/2 hours. The range went through 90 days of preparation for those 139 minutes.
Kennedy, along with Vice President Lyndon Johnson, New Mexico Representative Joseph Montoya and a number of other dignitaries were seated at the parade field at 2:45 p.m. -the hottest part of the day during the hottest month of the year. The range's workforce was invited to this portion and Kennedy talked to them for about 10 minutes.
The official party then went to Launch Complex 32 by car to begin the exercise. The first firing was an Honest John missile. The briefer had two minutes to explain the system's capabilities and what the soldiers were doing to fire it. The missile was fired against a hillside north of U.S. Highway 70.
After that, the Little John and Sergeant ground-to-ground missiles were fired from the same location. Finally, a HAWK air defense missile was launched against an F-80 jet fighter.
The group next moved to Launch Complex 37 where they witnessed a Nike Hercules launch against another Nike Hercules missile, a Navy Talos firing against another F-80 jet and a Nike Zeus launch. In addition, they watched a Pershing demonstration while a soldier pointed out the system's capabilities.
After the demonstrations, representative soldiers from the various missile crews presented the President with a model of the Sergeant missile and the Vice President with a Pershing plaque.
The last thing on the agenda was a 20-minute briefing for just the Presidential party on the Nike Zeus system.
Kennedy is still the only president to visit White Sands while in office.

Range vent installed, although with difficulty due to tight space. We had to bag the viking because it would have to vent off the roof and Joe was not willing to tolerate another pipe.
Golden State Freeway, Mettler, California.
A part of California thought devoid of attraction. But those mountains are the Transverse Ranges, which get crossed by this freeway starting at the Grapevine. In them is camping, wilderness hiking, the largest privately-owned nature preserve (Wind Wolves www.wildlandsconservancy.org/preserve_windwolves.html ), and new National Monuments - César Chavez and Carrizo Plain.

Drilled out Evoque showing the 4 different parts. The roof part is unfortunately a single piece including the wind shield. That's the reason why this model always sports darker windows.
