Giant Mountain Sunset: A Display of Light and Vapor
We climbed the East Face of Giant...an exciting ice climb that you can read more about here: http://www.adirondackalmanack.com/2014/12/slide-climbs-the-icy-east-fac…
After bushwhacking to the summit through a minimal snowpack, we arrived to this incredible display. A friend said, "I think I saw God in those pictures." I think he was correct!
Summit of Dix
hiked up to the summit of Dix this morning. The hike was fine, wicked windy on the summit and no view, went from micro spikes to full on crampons on the exposed rock on top. Saw one person camping at the lean to, other than that not a soul, just me and the mountain.
Santinoni Sunset
Great sunset, Santinoni is surely a gem in the Adirondacks.
Azure Mountain
The summit of Azure Mountain. Fun trip, great views, and a wonderful place to meet friends. Peak leaf "peeping".
"Life's Road"
9-21-14 “Life’s Road” - Oh sure, on Life’s Highway there will be highs and lows.....but even in the darkest of moments.....the gloomiest of days....I promise you there will be bright spots that will bring you great joy....you just have to keep your mind focused on them....steer away from danger....stay out of trouble...respect the rights of others...they have their own lane. Yes, the pathway to happiness has been paved for you....all you have to do is keep it between the lines. I took this photo on Rt. 458 early last eve...during a respite in the rain and an inspiring breach in the clouds.
