A 'looking back shot'. I am standing on the front porch of Stetson Hall and looking north up North Main St. Buck Hill rises above the street at the horizon.

There was a period of a minute or so this morning when the high clouds lit up in spectacular color.

I had not been following the phase of the moon, so it was a beautiful surprise when I started the hike up this morning and started seeing the light of the full moon peaking through the trees. I think there […]

We have been having a lot of wildfire smoke lately. I was up here for sunrise a couple of days ago and it was clear skies overhead, but twenty minutes after sunrise, there was no sign of the disc of the sun. Today the sky […]

The rocky top of Buck Hill is in the foreground. It is just before sunrise, but low clouds and fog obscure much of the view. Above the clouds a band of orange light gives way to a light blue sky.

@bodhipaksa I am finding conflicting versions of this story, but The Guardian has an article that implies the initial story was a hoax.

Here is my video of the Boston Fireworks taken from Buck Hill. Apologies, my ancient camcorder had difficulties with the auto-focus in the low light, but it should look fine if viewed on a smaller screen. Visibility was amazing this night, especially considering how many hazy days there have […]

There are some mornings when I question all of the effort, getting up insanely early, driving to the trailhead, hiking up to the top. Is it all worth the effort? And then you have mornings like this when it seems to sky […]

The time of sunrise is currently near it's earliest of the year. I had hoped for a good pre-work outing this morning, but the sunrise was pretty heavily fogged out. It was a strange morning because on the drive over I experienced rain drops on my windshield, then […]

A beautiful night for a sunset hike. Clear skies overhead, but lots of haze near the ground, perhaps some from wildfire smoke.

Puffy cumulus clouds fill the sky in this view from the summit of Buck Hill. Exposed rock can be seen in the foreground. Behind that is much newly green scrub brush. A few stunted trees break the horizon.

The sun rises in a cloudy sky. The sun appears as a red dot to the right of center. The sky is red and orange to the left of the frame where a gap in the clouds is letting more light through.

Has it really been a month since I posted a sunrise photo? The Sun is currently rising over Chikatabut Hill, to the right of center in this shot. It will rise behind Chikatabut until some time in July.

A large boulder on the top Buck Hill is in the foreground. Behind it are a field of shrubs and some stunted trees. It is very foggy, and some tall pine trees can be seen in the background through the fog.
