Winter is upon us…

Trail to Desolation Lake - 2009


Like most of the country, we have had a cold December with several big snow storms.  Meanwhile, in mid-December our website celebrated its 1st anniversary with 30,900 photo views.  From a photographic perspective, we were surprised how well the Antelope Canyon pictures came out and enjoyed the opportunity to revisit Colorado’s San Juan Mountains and Jackson Hole.  We recently upgraded the computer and software which has helped as we have brought old Kodachrome images out of the boxes and into the spotlight.  In that regard, we have taken advantage of the cold weather to assemble two especially memorable and beautiful Colorado climbing trips:

New Galleries:   > Summits > Sneffels & Uncompahgre – 1974   and  > Summits > Trico & Wetterhorn – 1975

Yankee Boy Basin - 1974

From the wildflowers of Yankee Boy Basin to the evening and morning light at Denver Lakes, the beauty of the San Juan Mountains is always inspiring.  I found I had notes from these old climbing adventures so I added more commentary than you need, but perhaps it stirs a memory, brings a smile or inspires a new adventure. 

Denver Lakes Camp - 1974

 Another new gallery > Subjects > Sunbeam the Bus - 1971 to 1984

Since the VW Bus era ends in 2013 as the last production line closes in Brazil – we had to rummage through the archives and put together a tribute to our faithful sidekick - Sunbeam the bus.
The gallery includes comment boxes if you want to add additional thoughts or stories.
San Rafael Swell - 1973
