Time #scape to the mountains.

βOnly happy when it rainsβ
This seasonal waterfall was gone in ten minutes after it stopped raining.

This is February. August is usually too hot unless just enjoying the scenery from the car.

Ready for the rocky road. Bikepacking in #DeathValley.

Diminishing recreation opportunities is a bummer but the least of our problems. California is basically desert relying on the snowpack as the water source. And the Alps and Himalayas are not doing much better either.
It has very descriptive but unimaginative name: Behind the Rocks Wilderness Study Area.
It doesn't really ever get very cold here. Quite the opposite, the winters recently have been too warm to even ski much any more.
Looks like the Bluesky player doesn't show the video either. But the link works. Generally, I think we are at the mercy of what the algorithms happen to push to the big audience.
#MountainMonday is calling and I'm taking this call.

Cloudy morning in Milford Sound, #NewZealand.
Indeed. I wish the avy level had been lower so we could have hit something bigger.
Even stepping on the track would sink you neck deep.
We got 7 feet of dry powder. Stopping, or even turning ended with a digging operation :)

Is it worth all the trouble? Oh yeah!

Yep, should have brought the helmet for this one. The dude above us was constantly dropping rocks on us.

Spot on, again.
Yeah, itβs a platform for politics and sunset pictures. But letβs try to keep the flame alive. Maybe someday.

Well the minimum is the board, bindings, boots, skins and poles. But nobody will go with you unless you also have a beacon, shovel, probe and training. I also carry a helmet, satellite communicator and avalanche air bag. And ice axe, ski crampons and boot crampons when necessary.
#Stunday
Bittersweet turns. This storm brought so much joy and immense sorrow in #LakeTahoe.

Three waterfalls in Milford Sound, New Zealand.
#WaterfallWednesday
Look carefully, there are three in there.
It is valuable when in the right place at the right time. Or very costly when it is in the wrong place. It is challenging location. So the tree removal company would have charged my neighbor arms and legs to chop it up and dump it. You can't buy beams like this so it is basically invaluable to me.
#RockinTuesday with some hoodoos.

I donβt have footage from my visit 20 years ago but all the glaciers disappeared in between.
