1/2
40 years ago today: I woke up to the sound of freight trains. One after another, they came clattering up from the distant mountain range to the west, circled the woods around my tent, and churned off toward the eastern horizon. My tent was pitched in a small, grassy clearing on the summit of Frosty Mountain in the Blue Ridge Mountains of northern Georgia. #backpacking#hiking#outdoors#landscapephotography#Georgia#nature#forests#mountains
'Twenty years after the Old Man of the Mountain collapsed, people around the world will now be able to explore the iconic symbol of New Hampshire through an online interactive 3D model created by Matthew Maclay, a graduate student in earth sciences at the Guarini School of Graduate and Advanced Studies.'
For #MountainMonday - Mount Baker (Kulshan) from Artist Point in the Mount Baker-Snoqualmie National Forest in Washington State, USA. Fall is my favourite time of year to be up there, with the red blueberry bushes and cooler air.
