Abandoned Rails Trail is an easy hour-long walk on the original C.P.R. line at the summit of Rogers Pass. It features close views of two snow sheds, associated slide paths, and the original Rogers Pass station area.
This is a beautiful area to go hiking, thought it's cold and damp most of the time and both grizzly and black bears are common in area.
The remains of one of the snow sheds can be seen on the left side of the photo.

The northernmost segment of Montgomery County’s Pennypack Trail, from Byberry Road to County Line Road in Lower Moreland Township, opened for public use in spring 2021. With the completion of this 0.7-mile section, the trail now extends for 6.2 miles along a scenic corridor beginning at the south in Rockledge Park and continuing north to the Bucks-Montgomery border at County Line Road.
Built on the former Fox Chase-Newtown SEPTA rail line, this 10- to 12- foot-wide gravel path provides level hiking and biking opportunities with scenic views of the Pennypack Creek valley.
Starting from the south at Rockledge Borough Park, at the intersection of Robbins & and Rockledge Avenues, the trail immediately crosses over Shady Lane and then a majestic 165-foot-long steel bridge that spans 35 feet above a small stream valley of a tributary to Pennypack Creek. For the next 2 miles, the trail runs along the western edge of the county’s Lorimer Park.
Madeline Trail follows old logging trails that wind around three lakes. The trail still had quite a bit of snow, along with some water puddles, ice and mud!
I found this lovely eye-catching work while I was walking around York last weekend.

It doesn't look like a trail, but it is. Tops of the Grand Tetons sticking up in back. From our trip to Yellowstone.
The 2,200 mile trail from Maine to Georgia is thru-hiked by very few people; more do it in segments, and many more of us only have the opportunity to do a few sections. Ours was in the Shenandoah National Park in Virginia, and even the short segment we did provided amazing views across the mountains. Birds, and wildlife are abundant. One hiker I came across had encountered 13 black bear in three days.
The exit of the Upper Tampa Bay Trail at West Linebaugh Avenue, just to the west of the Wilsky Boulevard intersection, is marked with short, red-striped poles. When the SAL track was in place, it continued across the intersection and connected with the S-line just to the east of the intersection. At that time, Beasley Road was the name of what is now Wilsky. Courtesy Tom Pavluvcik
LOOKING UP: This is at the Mill Valley end of the 671 steps of the beginning of the famous Dipsea Trail.
This design avoids the confusion of putting STOP signs on the trail when the rules of the road actually require drivers on the street to stop for occupied crosswalks.
When trail users and drivers arrive about the same time, drivers must respect the crosswalk. But if there are no trail users when a driver arrives at the intersection, there isn't the delay of a 4-way stop.
For trail users, most don't actually stop for trail STOP signs anyway, so this design reduces confusion and clarifies the rules that actually apply -- the same as any crosswalk, don't step/ride off the curb into the street if a driver is too close to safely stop, otherwise, proceed at a reasonable pace without having to stop.
The Inca Trail starts from a point in the Sacred Valley, called "Kilometer 82". To begin the journey, you cross a narrow bridge in Kusicancha, and then you head towards the left side of a eucalyptus forest. This trip is not suitable for cardiac people as it passes over 4,600 meters above sea level, the road winds up, down and around the mountains on ancient carved stone stairs, and then continues through three high Andean mountain passes , one of them with a disturbing name, "Dead Woman's Pass."
Thursday we walked 6km (3¾ miles) over Mt. Tolmie, around Henderson Golf Course chiptrail and back home through the University of Victoria's Alumni Trail system and Finnerty Gardens. What a beautiful part of the city we live in! We often refer to this area as our 'backyard' -- and the gardeners keep it in immaculate condition. What isn't tended is taken care of by Mother Nature -- as we know, Her work is always perfect.
We appreciate the wildeness-in-the-heart-of-the-city through the Mystic Spring's area and on the university grounds. Oak Bay Municipality continues to upgrade facilities at Henderson Recreational Centre and Park. There's currently a picnic shelter being constructed at Henderson Gyro Park (children's play area adjacent to the golf course) complete with its own, refurbished restrooms.
The new lawn outside the Interfaith Centre has matured to perfection -- and we have a picture-to-prove-it.
Hi all
My first go at this and quite pleased with the effect. This is a composite of six exposures of 4 seconds at ISO100 F16. At the time I felt I had captured plenty of light trails from the traffic ... but I guess it really needs more.
Thanks for looking.

Hedy is poised on the opposite bank of Stony Brook, my starting place for the 10th year of section hiking on the Appalachian Trail. This is Vermont, section 3, about 477 miles from Katahdin. Although the official AT map shows a parking area, there is only a small place on a dirt road to leave a single car. There are no services nearby so this is not a good place to get off or on the trail. The bridge was washed out and I had to begin this section by fording Stony Brook which had a suprising flow of water. This marks the first day of my 10th year on the AT. Vermont, section 3, 477.3 miles to Katahdin.
Section: Stony Brook Road to Vt 12.
