  • Hallett Peak (12,720 feet) looms above Bear Lake. Carol and I climbed to the top of the peak in our younger years. It wasn’t quite as hard as it looks. We climbed it from the west side of the Continental Divide. #routefinding

  • Pahoehoe lava (right) has a smooth surface where as `a`a lava has a rough surface. In an eruption where a lot of lava is being discharged at once - `a`a flows tend to form. If the rate is low, a pahoehoe flow is more likely. This example from Hawaii Volcanoes National Park on the Big Island of Hawaii shows both types of lava.

  • The Trail of the Cedars, a wheelchair-accessible trail, in Glacier National Park affords visitors entry to the magical world of a 500-year-old western red cedar / black cottonwood forest.<br />
<br />
The humidity of the Lake McDonald Valley enables the cedars to grow in size of 100 feet tall, and diameters of four to seven feet with many of the trees being more than 500 years old. The western red cedar is one of the most widespread trees in the Pacific Northwest, ranging from southern Alaska to northern California. This grove in Glacier National Park is near the eastern terminus of the western red cedar range.<br />
<br />
Glacier National Park in the Rocky Mountains of Montana encompasses more than 1 million acres. The park’s nickname is the “Crown of the Continent Ecosystem.” The park was established in May 1910. Soon after, hotels and chalets were established in the park, including the Lake McDonald Lodge. In 1932 construction began on the Going-to-the-Sun Road, allowing automobiles to traverse the park. Climate change is affecting the park. As of 2010, only 25 active glaciers remain in the park, down from the 150 that existed in the mid-19th century.

  • Rain approaches Avalanche Lake as seen from the Avalanche Lake Trail in Glacier National Park in Montana. Avalanche Lake was named in 1895 by a party including Dr. Lyman Sperry, namesake of the Sperry Glacier, who witnessed many avalanches during their stay. The meltwater from Sperry Glacier feeds the lake. Along the cliff face Monument Falls can be seen cascading down the mountain in the background. Avalanche Lake is the destination of the 4.5-mile roundtrip Avalanche Lake Trail.<br />

  • This undated photo of Fort William H. Seward in Haines, Alaska, shows the original fire hall tower on the grounds of the former U.S. Army post. To the right of the fire hall is the fort's guardhouse as soldier’s march on the fort’s parade field.<br />
<br />
After being absent from the historic Fort Seward skyline since approximately the 1930s, the 60-foot tower of the fort’s fire hall has been restored to its original height. The building and tower, built around 1904 in Haines, Alaska, was shortened to approximately half its height in the 1930s for unknown reasons. The restoration included rebuilding a missing 35-foot section of the 60-foot tower whose purpose was to dry fire hoses. The tower restoration was completed by building its four sections on the ground and then hoisting those sections with a crane into place on top of each other.<br />
<br />
Through the years, the historic Fort Seward area, a former U.S. Army post, has been referred to as Fort William H. Seward, Chilkoot Barracks, and Port Chilkoot. The National Historic Landmarks listing record for the fort says that "Fort Seward was the last of 11 military posts established in Alaska during the territory's gold rushes between 1897 and 1904. Founded for the purpose of preserving law and order among the gold seekers, the fort also provided a U.S. military presence in Alaska during boundary disputes with Canada. The only active military post in Alaska between 1925 and 1940, the fort was closed at the end of World War II.” <br />
<br />
The bottom portion of the fire hall is being leased as commercial space. Due to fire code restrictions there is no public access to the upper portion of the tower. <br />
<br />
The fire hall was restored over a two-year period by owners Joanne Waterman and Phyllis Sage who also own the fort’s original guardhouse located next door to the fire hall. That building, now known as the Alaska Guardhouse, is a bed and breakfast.

  • The uppermost portion of the Grand Pacific Glacier appears like a road intersection in Tatshenshini-Alsek Provincial Park. The Grand Pacific Glacier flows downward toward the Gulf of Alaska in the flow in the top left, and downward to to the upper reach of Glacier Bay National Park in the bottom left and right flows. The top right flow is the Melbern Glacier. Tatshenshini-Alsek Provincial Park is located in the very northwestern corner of British Columbia, Canada. The park sits between Kluane National Park and Reserve in the Yukon and Glacier Bay and Wrangell-St. Elias National Parks and Preserves in Alaska. All together, they form the largest protected area in thew world, approximately 21 million acres. The Tatshenshini and Alsek Rivers are protected in their entirety making them the only large watershed in North America that is totally protected.<br />
<br />
The remote park is known for its spectacular glacier and icefields, rafting and kayaking, hiking and mountaineering. Tatshenshini-Alsek Provincial Park is home to grizzly bears, Dall's sheep, wolves, mountain goats, moose, eagles, falcons, and trumpeter swans.<br />
<br />
The park was designated a UNESCO World Heritage site in 1994.

  • The dramatic peaks of Makana Ridge above Haena and Kee Beach mark the begining of the Na Pali coast on the Island of Kauai in Hawaii. The main peak, Makana (right), was used by early Hawaiians to conduct the fire throwing ceremony called oahi. On special occasions firethrowers climbed the cliffs to the top of Makana with logs that were set  on fire at night and thrown out over the ocean. Updrafts kept the logs and sparks aloft for up to a mile out to sea in a dramatic display. In more recent times, the peak has been associated with the movie South Pacific where the peak represented Bali Hai.

  • New Jersey Tea, Ceanothus americanus, blooms near the Lower Fox Creek Schoolhouse located in the Tallgrass Prairie National Preserve in the Kansas Flint Hills. New Jersey Tea was used by Native Americans for medicinal purposes, tea, and for tanning hides. The pictured tree is a cottonwood, the state tree of Kansas. The Lower Fox Creek Schoolhouse, on the National Historic Register of Historic Places, was built on land donated by cattleman Stephen F. Jones. Built in 1882, the one-room school had its first classes in 1884. Typical enrollment was between one to 19 students of all grades. The school was closed in 1930 and restored in 1968 by the Garden Clubs in the Mid-East District of Kansas. The 10,894-acre Tallgrass Prairie National Preserve is located in Chase County near the towns of Strong City and Cottonwood Falls. Less than four percent of the original 140 million acres of tallgrass prairie remains in North America. Most of the remaining tallgrass prairie is in the Flint Hills in Kansas. Tallgrass Prairie National Preserve is the only unit of the National Park Service dedicated to the preservation of the tallgrass prairie ecosystem. The Tallgrass Prairie National Preserve is co-managed with The Nature Conservancy.

  • The Mackinac Bridge, the longest suspension bridge in the Western Hemisphere, connects Michigan’s lower and upper peninsulas. The Mackinac Bridge, including approaches is roughly file miles long with the roadbed at mid-span approximately 200 feet above the Straits of Mackinac where Lake Michigan and Lake Huron meet. As it is a suspension bridge, the bridge roadbed can slowly shift as much as 35 feet during severe winds. The Mackinac Bridge carries Interstate 75 (I-75). The bridge, also known as the “Mighty Mac” or “Big Mac" was opened in 1957. Pedestrians are not allowed to walk across the bridge except during the Mackinac Bridge Walk which is held every Labor Day.
