Finally remembered to take my Camera hiking,.. Couple Pics!


These were shot either half way up the mountian, or at the top,.. just a kinda neat view I thought some would enjoy.











This was about a 4 hour hike, we walked around the mountian, then up it,.. It was allot of fun

Excellent view shots of that wide expanse of landscape, Whiskey! Must have been an exhilirating hike to get those views.

I was in Phoenix a couple of years ago on our Western Tour and was amazed at how that little desert town had grown since I'd last seen it in the late 60's and very early 70's.

Nice pics. Quite a different landscape from what I'm used to seeing.

Beatiful. I'll have to send some from the Adirondacks this summer when I go on my yearly camping/hiking trip.
