Wickersham Dome

Evening light hitting Wickersham Dome in the White Mountains

Wavy Sunset

A bit of atmospheric distortion as the sun sets. As we drove through the hills on the way home the temperature would fluctuate between 0° and -20° F. Beautiful night out on Wickersham Dome!

Western Landscape - Uncropped

This is a pretty large stitched panorama (7652 x 4729 pixels) that I intended to be a 1:2 aspect ratio - except I couldn't decide if I liked it with more sky, or more landscape. So I posted the uncropped version. If you want a print, you can decide how you like it.

Wind Shelter

Sort of. Jenn trying to stay out of the elements during a little bit of a rainy, windy hike on Wickersham Dome.

Hoary Marmot

We were eating "dinner" at the summit of Wickersham Dome in this little windshelter when I saw this guy (or gal) crawling around on one of the rocks. I went approached slowly to get a better view and it turned out he didn't really mind my presence at all. Usually they whistle a few times and go hide under a rock. I sat down, about 10 feet away and just took pictures for a few minutes. I got up and left before it did.

Looking at Wickersham Dome from an overlook near the start of the trail. It looked like it was going to be a lot further of a hike that it was.
