It's been a few years since I visited Yankee Jims. Perched in the foothills above the American River Canyon, during the 1850s, Yankee Jims boasted one of the largest hydraulic mining operations in the state. Legend has it that Yankee Jim was an Australian known for his prowess in thieving horses--not a trait that made a man popular back in those days. He was the first one to settle the area, thus the name, but had to hightail it in a hurry, when he found out that horse rustling was a hanging offense. Such colorful history.
Shown is one of the original buildings. It's still inhabited by descendants from the Gold Rush period.
Happy Slider's Sunday everyone.

On our way back from exploring today, we took a four-wheel drive through Yankee Basin outside of Ouray. It was another great drive with amazing views all along the way. There is a stream next to the road that also gave us some nice waterfall opportunities. We read online before we came on the trip that July is the best month to see wildflowers in the mountains. Boy were they right. The mountains were full of colorful flowers on every trail we went on during this trip. There are so many areas to explore around Silverton and Ouray. I can't wait until my next trip back.

Memorial in Cavendish Cemetery to the American and Maritime sailors lost during the Yankee Gale in October 1851. The worst marine disaster in the history of Prince Edward Island.
The 4WD trail to Yankee Boy Basin was quite the challenge. I was kinda proud of myself and Wanda (my 4Runner) when we made it all the way to the top.
The payoff was the wildflowers were blooming and the light softened on and off for us. Overall, lots of fun.

Winter has arrived and finally some clear skies – my initial attempt around the huts at the far end of Namadgi National Park was clouded out so a quick visit to Yankee Hat (Plan B) provided a beautifully clear night sky. The area was pitch black and the shot includes two images, a sky shot and a five-minute exposure of the ground. I also noticed later when editing these images, a small meteor shower was active through the Milky Way core but its not visible in this image. The temperature around 7 pm was also minus 2 which explains why my hands were freezing, Namadgi National Park, Australia.

This silver mine was discovered in 1882 and remained open till the early 1900's. It is located in the Red Mountain Townsite area and can be seen from the Million Dollar Highway when you see a trestle beside the road.
North American B-25 Mitchell "Yankee Doodle" takes to the air today as it departs from the Illinois Valley Regional Airport. Unfortunately today's airshow was cancelled because of rain. Even though there was no "official" airshow, the planes that were departing often made several fly-by passes before heading off.

Yankees…
Je sais la photo n'est pas parfaite. J'ai toujours du mal à demander aux gens de poser pour moi, alors je vole mes clichés. Ici nous sommes sur le ferry et cet homme est pour moi l'exemple type du New Yorkais fan de sport… (Bon je dis ça mais je me suis acheté un blouson et des casquettes des New York Yankees!) Il faudrait que les photographes de FlickR qui passent sur mon Stream et qui sont assez doué pour faire ce genre de photo, me donnent des conseils!
Yankees…
I know the picture is not perfect. I still have hard time to ask people to let me picture them, so I steal my shots. Here we are on the ferry and this man is for me a good example of the sports fan New Yorker… (I say that and I bought in NYC a jacket and caps of the Yankees! ) If some FlickR's photographs who are visiting my stream can give me advices on this kind of candid pictures, it'll be nice!
