Merriam Lake, John Muir Wilderness, Sierra Nevada, CA.
Definitely what dreams are made of.
No one around, no bugs, just us swimming in a huge alpine, granite lined lake on a warm, clear day.

This is the way to present this place Jim. My dad used to take us out and about that area when I was a kid in LA.

The #Quelccaya Ice Cap, 18,700ft, in southern #Peru is the largest tropical #glacier on 🌎. ZOOM IN, you'll enjoy a few details. The scale of this thing is insane!
I did a solo bike tour around it in 2016. Beautiful, lonely, and immense. πŸ“Έ taken from remote, high attitude ranchlands

This is one of the views that can be missed on the morning scroll, unless one clicks on it to zoom in. Thanks Mark, beautiful share.

Some thought provoking reminders in here. Thanks.
Highlights parts of what the Black Panthers did.

New Mexico has some #winter gems, like the #CanadianRiver valley near #Roy, #NM

Pipa, you were just a little girl when you lost your father. That must have a big impact on you. This little town, Ribera de Cardos, is a unique place to spend your childhood.

Such a beautiful place to remember them Pipa. Very powerful energy and emotions embodied there I'm sure. Thank you for sharing.

Nelson Mandela walked free from prison on this day 1990.

"I was called a terrorist, but when I came out of jail, many people embraced me, including my enemies, and that is what I tell other people who say those who are struggling for liberation in their country are terrorists."

Nez Perce Peak, 11,906ft

#Climbing the Middle #Teton with a buddy, we were nearing the top of Cunningham Ridge as #sunset came upon us. Oops. The view of #NezPerce below us to the east was amazing, despite a cold night out in the #mountains. #JacksonHole #GTNP

Well, thanks for sharing the Sandias so much on here. I'm sure I'll enjoy following your posts. Thank you.

Yes, nice! This one though, I'm having a bit of a time placing it. Looks like the 505 trail possibly.

You have some great pics here. You spend a lot of time on the mountain.

If I find out that even just one of you GenXers took your mom to the Neil Diamond show without waking me up with a 7:15pm phone call to invite me, so help me gawd!

In winter, New Mexico's Sangre de Cristo Mountains are windswept & lonely, greeting #backcountry skiers with eroded winter snow called #sastrugi. Santa Fe Baldy's #skiing is found in the eastern #powder bowls in the leeside of these sastrugi covered ridgelines. #NM #Rockies #winter #photogrpahy

Oh, yes. I see why you go there. Beautiful. It has a river walk, putting you near water which you love. It appears that it is closer to the mountains. What do you do while there Pipa? Walk and take pictures of some things you can share? πŸ™

Another reminder that July in the #SanJuan #Mountains of #Colorado is a great time to do some #trail #running. Just look at those views and #flowers. This is the #CT Colorado Trail at the head of South Mineral Creek near #Silverton. This was our favorite loop of the summer of 2025.

Wow, 21Β°? That is so warm. Not mild winter temperatures. More similar to previous June temperatures. No?

It has become more common here as winter temperatures rise. Sad to see this.

We did some great #trail #running loops this Fall. This is on Penitente Peak in #SantaFe along the #Skyline trail with Santa Fe Baldy and the Truchas range in the back, in the Sangre de Cristo Mtns.
#NewMexico is awesome with nearly no one on the trails. #nature #hiking #publiclands
