Best thing I’ve seen in a while. Of course it’s in #SantaFe#NewMexico. At the entrance to a hiking trail. The idea is when you return to your car after a hike, you pour any unused water from your water bottles into Rusty’s mouth and, well, he “pees” it onto the young tree, to water it.
I love the little details, like the hex nuts as Rusty’s toes on his paws.
Yesterday was a fantastic day of hiking and photography in Alaska. I updated a wildflower guide, captured a black-capped chickadee collecting nest material, saw my first blooming wildflower of the season (northern kittentails), and hiked Wickersham Dome, unexpectedly meeting an old friend.
Vogelgesang von rechts wie links. Ein leises, laues Lüftchen mit wunderbar natürlichem Duft.
Und dazu eine malerische Aussicht.
Mehr braucht es wirklich nicht.

Two thrilling walks over the weekend. First was over Hart Fell near #Moffat and along the narrowest ridge line I’ve followed. Yesterday was Grey Mare’s Tail, then around the horseshoe above it.
Fun fact: Grey Mare’s Tail is so called because the drive from Edinburgh is an absolute ‘mare.
This is a Mariposa lily I found on my hike today at Henry Coe park, southeast of San Jose, California. It is my favorite local wildflower. #hiking#photography#wildflowers#mariposalily

I’m hanging out at the famous Blue Pool this morning eating lunch and drying out my tent. It rained a bit while I slept but was only misting by the time I was packing up. I’ve already covered a large portion of the trail last night and this morning. This trail is a gem, I love it out here. I believe the waterfall corridor is next. Just a quick post, more photos to come.
I tagged the end of the trail this morning. Incredible trail. No one told me I would be hiking on a lava bed at the edge of a beautiful lake. I’m currently in the snow attempting a summit of Sand Mountain to see the views.
I received word via satellite that Sand Mountain has great views of the surrounding volcanos. Decided to take a last minute 15-mile side trip. First time I’ve climbed a snowy mountain but it wasn’t too hard with micro spikes. Snow was still frozen from overnight. I felt like I was on the top of the world, no one around for miles. It’s amazing we can do this.
Ranger Sarah hike up onto the lava flow. The McCartys Flow is the most recent lava flow in the Zuni-Bandera Volcanic Field, and is one of thes youngest lava flows in the Southwest. It is approximately 3,900 years old.
