I love that country, there's abandoned mine equipment everywhere. Considering it is on the East side of the Sierra, I've always found it amazing that so much heavy machinery was hauled over the passes, some manufactured on the East Coast.
Jim Harrington Yes, ages ago. I grew up watching Carl Yastrzemski on the Red Sox and Bobby Orr on the Boston Bruins. As kids we'd shovel snow off of the ice on nearby ponds to play hockey. I started skiing in New Hampshire on Cannon Mountain, where Bode Miller got his start. The original tram at Cannon was built by the same company which manufactured telephone booths, so it looked like a fat telephone booth, holding only 24 people. They packed us in like sardines.
I love the gorgeous snow on the wood!! It's my pleasure to share your amazing photo to the Landscape Photography page! Check out all the great photos there including yours!!
G+ Photowalk May 4-7: Yosemite National Park - A World Heritage Site, one of the world's most incredible landscapes - Lunar rainbows ("moonbows") - waterfalls at peak flow - dogwood trees blooming by the Merced River - Spring wildflowers - reflections in Spring pools & the Merced River - full moon night landscapes The second photowalk in my series this Spring, again coinciding with the full moon to maximize shooting opportunities, will be to Yosemite National Park. This is one of the most spectacular landscapes in the world, and with lunar rainbows and night, full waterfalls, and wildflowers and trees blooming, this is arguably the best weekend of the year to visit. Feel free to RSVP or ask questions here, or for more information in a post which won't get buried, I've set up a post under a new Yosemite page at this link, where I'll maintain all the latest logistical details: https://plus.google.com/u/0/b/116372553458318494396/116372553458318494396/posts/ct...
Limited Time Offer For the next 2 weeks, the light of the setting sun will backlight Horsetail Falls just before sunset... if the waterfall is flowing and if clouds don't block the sun! I just cancelled reservations for 2 rooms at the Yosemite Lodge for Feb 24-26 Weekend. I'll still be going, but I decided to camp instead. Come on up and shoot Yosemite in the Winter! https://picasaweb.google.com/107459220492917008623/MyTravels20062009#5293901653794383122 #plusphotoextract
