Sunset Over Leadville, Colorado


Sunset over Leadville, Colorado

Touted as the "highest city in the US", at over 10,000 feet, the 
population is only 2,800 - so more accurately it would be the highest
town in the US - beautiful place though, this is the edge of the timberline
This was the sunset on my first day there

Big Sur Coast


Big Sur coast, south of Carmel, California

This is along Highway 1, you can see a bridge just before that knoll
The mountains here rise as high as 7800 feet, Pico Blanco is the
highest - we tried hiking it and got stuck just under the summit - 
toughest hike I've ever attempted, the trail is all roots and rocks

Piegan Pass Trail, Glacier National Park


Trail to Piegan Pass, Glacier National Park, Montana

You can see two hikers on the trail about a mile ahead of us, about one-fourth
of the photo from the right edge, looking like a boulder where there are none
The 'saddle' in the mountain is the pass
