The Liskamm mountain, left of center in the background of this capture, is 50m higher than the legendary Matterhorn and has a long ridge.
The mountain is nicknamed the "Man-eater" because in former days, many climbers fell off from its snow slopes and died.

Triumph of the Alpine Glaciers
As we get higher the snow gets deeper. This shows the steepness of the hill we are climbing. Beyond can be seen Millstone Hill, also covered in snow.
Chiesa Millenaria..... è uno dei più begli esempi di architettura romanica del Levante ligure.
Dalle origini antichissime, nel secolo XII ebbe funzione di pieve su un territorio che comprendeva anche Rapallo e tutto il versante di Recco. La sua decadenza iniziò già nel ‘400, nel ‘600 venne abbandonata e nel 1800 venne adibita nientemeno che a fienile. Dopo i restauri di inizio Novecento, la splendida "millenaria" ' ancora li'..bellissima , nel silenzio della preghiera ... e nel nome del Padre.....

Millenian Church...... Is one of the finest examples of Romanesque architecture of the Ligurian Riviera.
Ancient origins, in the twelfth century was used as a parish church in an area that included the whole slope of Rapallo and Recco. Its decline began already in the '400, in the' 600 was abandoned in 1800 and was used as nothing less than a barn. After the restoration of the early twentieth century, the splendid "millennial" is 'still there' .. beautiful, in the silence of prayer ... and in the name of the Father ...
“The Quebec College of Physicians & Surgeons proposed to extend Medical Assistance in Dying (MAiD) to infants born with disabilities up to one year old!”
First they dehumanize the unborn and kill them, then they come after the born. The Nazi’s started with the disabled too.
Here is a government funded children’s activity book on assisted suicide:

Ezekiel 32:5-6 “I will strew your flesh upon the mountains and fill the valleys with your carcass. I will drench the land with your flowing blood all the way to the mountains, and the ravines will be filled with your flesh.”

( If you'd like to get the idea of scale here, have a look at my similar photo with a human figure on this slope: www.flickr.com/photos/a_reef/26456437714 )
Frankfort Mineral Springs waterfall near Pittsburgh, Was here about 3 weeks ago and now the icicles are longer & heavier.
The rock formations are exceptional and ice is apparent in more places. The temperature was about 55F. and some ice was starting to fall from above. The actual waterfall is in the middle of the picture. If you visit it is really slippery coming up the creek.
I believe this beautiful bright green bug to be a katydid. It's posted today for Looking Close on Friday:Bugs & Co
thank you for all visits, faves and especially comments
Not a great photo but the first Pac-slope sighting of the fall.

On the southeast end of Jökulsárlón, a proglacial lake in southeast Icleland, Icebergs that have been floating on the lake get stacked up as they try to flow out Jökulsa, the lake’s outlet to the sea. The icebergs come from the ice that calves off Breiðamerkurjökull into the lake. Breiðamerkurjökull is a large glacial tongue that extends from southern part of the Vatnajökull ice cap. The Vatnajökull ice field covers an area of 3,200 square miles (8,400 square km) with an average ice thickness of more than 3,000 feet (900 meters). Several volcanoes, some active, and other mountains lie beneath it. By both volume and area, this monster glacier is the largest in Iceland and second largest in Europe after the ice cap on Severny Island which is the northern island of the Novaya Zemlya archipelago in Russia. Most of Vatnajökull including the Breiðamerkurjökull lies in Vatnajökull National Park.
Breiðamerkurjökull is currently constantly retreating, breaking and melting, which means Jökulsárlón (The Iceberg Lagoon) continues to increase in size. It is less than a 100 years old, but is currently the deepest lake in Iceland.
