Yesterday's evening hike... grand & far views, and looking much warmer than it was...

#LandscapePhotography #NaturePhotography #Photography #Bavaria #Allgäu #Alps #Mountains #Hiking

A path is leading through a wild mountain meadow with lots of flowers towards a group of spruces in the not too far distance. Yellow evening light is illuminating a section of the meadow, creating a glow and hard contrast with the shadowy area in the foreground. In the far back, the western flank of the Ammergauer Alps, incl. foot hills and region around Füssen. A layer of clouds is hovering close above the mountains, above that serene clear blue sky.
Panoramic view across mountain meadows with lots of flowers, patches of forests and fields in the foot hills of the Alps in the Allgäu region. A scattering of small villages and hamlets here and there. A layer of clouds is hovering close above the mountains in the distance, above that serene clear blue sky. In the foreground, yellow evening light is illuminating a section of the meadow, creating a bright glow and hard contrast with the shadowy areas even closer.

2/ Took my cousin who we’re hosting for a hike up to Lone Pine lake. For someone who lives at sea level she had no problem climbing from 8 to 10 thousand feet ⛰️

June 10, 1983, 41 years ago today: I spent the day today wandering a high green country of forest and rocky pastures encompassing Mount Rogers and its surroundings.

Today’s hiking skies: (1) Clear and moony; (2) I can see for miles and miles (except for this big rock in the way); (3) Just click the App Store icon; and (4) Storm’s a brewin’!

The tilted Flatirons rocks in the morning sun, sitting behind rolling, grassy meadows and tall, green pine trees and under crystal clear, blue skies. A small, faint, waning gibbous moon is hanging high in the sky above the rocks.
A profile view of the large, sunlit, uptilted Third Flatiron rock sticking above the pine-covered hillside. To the left, an almost endless view of the flat Colorado plains stretching toward the far horizon. Mostly clear skies, just a few thin clouds.
A gravel hiking path winds through a grassy meadow, with a few pine trees on either side. In the mostly sunny skies above just a few thin, wispy clouds and several contrails from planes. Three of the contrails cross in a giant “A” shape that resembles the Apple App store icon.
After a long hike, the clouds have changed over the tilted Flatirons rocks, visible in the distance across a rolling, green meadow. There are several, large, dramatic towering cumulus clouds building above and behind the rocks, high into the blue skies. The clouds have darker bases that look somewhat stormy.

Mount Everest has a massive trash problem, thanks to the some 400 to 500 climbers that attempt to summit it every year.

New efforts and innovative strategies could solve the sky-high waste management problem.

Climbers have turned Mount Everest into a high-altitude garbage dump, but sustainable solutions are within reach

Mountain tourism brings revenues to Nepal but leaves a mess behind. Local and international groups are offering new cleanup strategies.

Lightning Lake | #Aoraki/Mount Cook, New Zealand

Photographer Tom Rae:
‘The Milky Way emerges from New Zealand’s highest mountain on a winter night – a shot I’ve longed to capture. In rare alpine weather conditions, I embarked on a journey up the glacial valley one night. Upon reaching the lake, the scene that unfolded made me feel like I had landed on another planet.'

A Clear Welcome | Laguna de los Tres, #Patagonia, #Argentina

Photographer Francesco Dall’Olmo: ‘This was the first photo I took in Patagonia. Contrary to expectations of cold, rain, and wind, our initial encounter with these landscapes was unusual: nearly three days of clear skies. This clear welcome gifted me with a rare photo of Mount Fitz Roy framed by the Milky Way arch’

Lupine Dreams | Eastern Sierra, California

Photographer Brandt Ryder: ‘Superblooms can be a once-in-a-lifetime event. An atmospheric river in the winter of 2023 caused record amounts of moisture to fall in the eastern #Sierra Mountains and their foothills. The result was one of the best wildflower or superblooms on record for the state.'

Caradhras | Milky way arch above Vršič pass

Photographer Matej Mlakar: ‘Vršič Pass is a high mountain crossing across the Julian #Alps in north-western #Slovenia. It is the highest pass in Slovenia, as well as the highest in the eastern Julian Alps. One of those peaks is Prednje Robičje (1,941 metres or 6,368ft high), where this image was taken’

For #MountainMonday: A spring rainstorm flows from the clouds to the mountains in British Columbia, Canada. Eagle Mountain and the Buntzen Lake area appear to be receiving the brunt of the rainfall while the sun breaks through the clouds to the west.

A view of some of the White Mountains from a roadside parking area, summer 2019.

(It’s a wide panorama, probably won’t work very well for mobile viewing.)
