A View 40 Years Old


Compare this photo with the one posted on the Letters From Amboy blog. They're quite similar. My intent here was to capture the seven horizons. Thanks to some help from two excellent photographers, I was also able to capture the texture of the clouds.

This was my second visit to this lake in 40 years. I can't tell if it was different this time or not. At least I knew it was there.

Nice.
I don't remember seeing that in the batch I copied over...I looked through too quickly I guess.
I will have to look again at the high res version.

These three posts (Mushroom, Western Anemone, and now, Dewey) just about make me want to cry with the memory of the joys I have had hiking in these fairly pristine areas. I remember hiking towards Dewey, but I don't remember who all were along; also I don't remember that we actually got all the way there. I think it may have been Mitch and probably Steve, at least that were on the hike some 40 years ago. Who do you think it was?

It was definitely not Mitch and Steve. The children were 5-10 years younger than me. How about John and Winnie C? I'm sure this was before I knew Otto K. I think they were your co-workers,whoever they were.

Well, it may have been Otto and his girls, although I thought the first time he brought his girls was when I made that marathon hike from the trailhead to Snow Lake before breakfast and then continued on up to Viviane (now I remember its name!) before lunch.

Definitely was NOT John & Winnie Coleman -- I don't ever remember hiking with them, in fact.
