waterfalls
-
chipping at some glacier ice
-
looking back again
-
now Jason is in the lower right - still moving forward
-
I was there too - that's my shoe in the snow
-
Jason was racing back to the car so the ice doesn't melt
-
looking back at Portage Lake and the climb so far
-
break in the glacier - river runs through it
-
nice day to be out and about
-
soaking up the vitamin D
-
still going - he wanted to get to the good, blue glacier ice
-
climb up snow or rocks? we did both
-
sunny day - yes, Jason was fine in shorts
-
end of glacier in one spot
-
pretty vast when you look at Jason in the lower left corner
-
first look back - we just walked over that snow
-
this glacier had a lot of rocks on top and soil in some places
-
we hiked ON the glacier - we had a ways to go
-
we got to the face of the glacier, but Jason wanted good blue ice...so this was the beginning
-
great easy trail up to face of glacier
-
Byron Glacier Trailhead - supposed to be a mile in and a mile out -we took a longer trip
-
quick stop at Portage Lake - we were here 6 years ago - that glacier in teh distance is Robert Burns glacier
-
love this hwy
-
lots of yellows and more oranges and reds this time
-
another day on the Seward Hwy - started foggy, but brightened up quickly
-
Sleeping Lady with city lights - on our way back down the mountain
-
the sun sets further to the south every night - it's been fun to track (oh and sunset is around 9pm now)
-
interesting shot
-
The Moon - I'm playing with my camera settings - still need practice
-
Sleeping Lady - Mt. Susitna - across Cook Inlet from Anchorage
-
you can see the city lights under the layer of fog - that's Denali, Foraker, and Spurr (at least wikipedia told me that)
-
we were surprised at how well we could see Denali (we could see snow cover with binoculars) - great colors!
-
View of Denali from Blueberry Loop
-
Hello moon - cool affects show my lack of patience
-
We saw this moose on the way up to Flattop
-
fiery sunset
-
Great colors in an autumn sky
-
mountain to the south of Anchorage
-
bye bye sun
-
Jason and the sunset
-
we saw the moon up over a ridge and decided to chase it - hike up the mtn to Blueberry Trail at 9pm (not to summit of Flattop)
-
so, the neat thing was the fog that covered Anchorage - see it?
-
Flattop to the east at sunset
-
oh - we found the tree again
-
wow - so many crappy views in this state
-
following the trail
-
Chugach Mountains around Eagle River
-
more of a forested trail than we're used to, but it was pretty
-
Jason in the tree
-
beaver dam and pretty views
