Stoner Posted July 19, 2016 Report Posted July 19, 2016 Sigh. I want to go to all of these places. Nice pics Kev. Kind of reminds me of Ohiopyle southeast of Pittsburgh. One of the features there is a natural waterslide in one of the streams that flow into the Youghiogeny River. More than a day trip for you guys, but there's a lot to see around there. Mount Davis, the highest point in PA (and the snowiest). The Flight 93 Memorial. Fort Necessity National Battlefield. And two Frank Lloyd Wright houses. Then you could come home via Pittsburgh, stopping to piss on the side of the Consol Energy Center. Quote

Falling Water is very cool, but Kentuck Knob is a house I could see actually living in. The slides on the south end of town were really running that day I'm impressed by the kids that braved them. I highly recommend it! Quote

I highly recommend it! They'd have to take me out of there on a stretcher (the slide, not Kentuck Knob). People were being slammed against the rock wall on one side. I can't imagine it feels good, unless you are young and still plastic. Quote
biodork Posted July 20, 2016 Report Posted July 20, 2016 Great pics, Bio! Are those taken with your phone? If so, what kind of phone are you using? Thanks! And yep, cell phone pics (Nexus 5X) unfortunately, although not too bad for a camera phone. Snow? Hockey season still to far away:( Always some snow at 14,000 ft! ;) Great pics, ubkev! I love waterfalls. Quote
JJFIVEOH Posted July 20, 2016 Author Report Posted July 20, 2016 Thanks! And yep, cell phone pics (Nexus 5X) unfortunately, although not too bad for a camera phone. Always some snow at 14,000 ft! ;) Great pics, ubkev! I love waterfalls. No, not bad at all. You'll never be able to beat using different lenses with an SLR or film camera but phone cameras have come a long, long way over the last few years. Quote

Next time I go, I'm going to wait for flood season! Oh, and go to more mountains! You're making me miss skiing! Quote

I just got around to putting the summer wax on my board last night, and I'm already looking forward to when I can take it back out in November. :) Quote
JJFIVEOH Posted July 24, 2016 Author Report Posted July 24, 2016 Look what I found in the pool skimmer. Quote
biodork Posted July 24, 2016 Report Posted July 24, 2016 (edited) So tiny! This was from yesterday's hike (more wildflowers for PA) at Shrine Ridge near Vail. Gorgeous day. Edited July 24, 2016 by biodork Quote
dudacek Posted July 24, 2016 Report Posted July 24, 2016 Three views of last weekend's excursion . Quote
JJFIVEOH Posted July 24, 2016 Author Report Posted July 24, 2016 Kev, those are some killer waterfall shots. I'm jealous, there's nothing like hiking through the woods searching for waterfalls. Especially ones big enough where you can hear them a half mile away, so relaxing. \ Bio, I always thought that area starts getting real brown around this time of year. Your pics are so green. Three views of last weekend's excursion.image.jpegimage.jpegimage.jpeg Where's that at? Quote
biodork Posted July 24, 2016 Report Posted July 24, 2016 Dudacek, those are great! That green water... swoon. And JJ, it hasn't rained here much recently, but it storms briefly most afternoons so I guess that's been enough to keep things going. The trail we did is typically only open from July-Sept since it's above 11,000 ft, so must be there's usually snow outside of those months! Quote
dudacek Posted July 24, 2016 Report Posted July 24, 2016 (edited) Mine are of Myra Falls. They pour into Buttle Lake in Strathcona Park in northern Vancouver Island. It's up pretty high, (not nearly as high as Bio's, but high for here) but you can drive most of the way. Water was surprisingly warm enough to swim in. Edited July 24, 2016 by dudacek Quote
Stoner Posted July 25, 2016 Report Posted July 25, 2016 Look what I found in the pool skimmer. That's a forever stamp! So tiny! This was from yesterday's hike (more wildflowers for PA) at Shrine Ridge near Vail. Gorgeous day. Thanks. Beautiful shot. Quote
JJFIVEOH Posted July 25, 2016 Author Report Posted July 25, 2016 That's a forever stamp! Thanks. Beautiful shot. I can use it more than once? Quote
Doohicksie Posted July 25, 2016 Report Posted July 25, 2016 I caught some nice lighting on Sunday night's ride. Quote
ubkev Posted July 25, 2016 Report Posted July 25, 2016 I caught some nice lighting on Sunday night's ride. Love the tree cover! We only get that in the country around here. In the city trees are few and far between. But I do have a mammoth maple right in front of my house. The next tree is 5 houses down. Quote
Doohicksie Posted July 25, 2016 Report Posted July 25, 2016 A lot of established neighborhoods here have tree cover. There has been a problem with a tree fungus that kills some of them, but I think it's only certain varieties that are affected. We had two maples (at least they looked like maples) in our yard that had to be cut down, but then again, I always felt it was far too dry here for a maple to thrive (which probably makes them susceptible to the fungus).

dudacek Posted August 11, 2016 Report Posted August 11, 2016 Had the rare privilege to hike to an ecological preserve set aside to save the endangered Vancouver Island marmot today. Didn't see any marmots, but the views were spectacular. . Quote
