We're having great "tourist" weather (bright sun, clear skies) but lousy photography weather. And there isn't much of a "golden hour" because the mountains block the sun for most of the good light and I'm not in a position to camp out on a mountain to get good sunrise/sunset light (domestic tranquility and all that...)
But we're having a great time and I'm getting in a few good shots. Here's one for Cotty: http://www.robertstech.com/temp/notoncrack.jpg Saw this fellow on today's excursion: A hike up Torres Peak (14,200 ft). Definitely several notched above GFM in difficulty/intensity. This follows a day of mountain biking in real mountains; I don't think we were ever below 9000 ft and some hiking on Sunday. Tomorrow calls for more mountain biking, followed on Thursday by the real event of the week, a hike up LaPlata Peak. Only a couple of hundred feet higher than Torres, but the trail starts a couple of thousand feet lower and it's a much steeper climb. Still, by the end of the day today, the air at 11,000 ft felt wonderfully dense and oxygen-rich ;-) As is typical on trips with my beloved S.O. Lisa, I'll probably need a week to recover after. I may have a small GESO tomorrow. -- PDML Pentax-Discuss Mail List [email protected] http://pdml.net/mailman/listinfo/pdml_pdml.net
