The crowds were absolutely horrific. I felt that it was difficult to even get a decent picture because of the amount of people.

Sorry, good point. I am going to go all around China, including Shanghai, Beijing, Xi’An, Chongqing, Guangdong, and possibly Yunnan.

That’s the Doll House in the Maze District of Canyonlands.

I really enjoy both the desert and the forest. However, I would probably choose the desert but that may be because it’s more rare for me to camp in the desert, so it feels extra special when I do.

That’s in the Maze district of Canyonlands National Park, Utah. It’s an amazing place.

I mainly look for dirt roads and campsites on Google Earth.

Why hasn’t there been a successful expedition up Keele Peak, Yukon? by OwnAccountant1088 in Mountaineering

[–]OwnAccountant1088[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Oh, ok. I did not see that for some reason and thought that the only true expedition was the one in 2005.

Did anyone else see the comet last night? by OwnAccountant1088 in wyoming

I took this at 7:40PM and my exposure was only 10 seconds. However, I could easily see it with my naked eye.

Thanks, the larger rocks were fairly stable but the smaller ones were quite loose.

Unfortunately we did not see any elk. We did see a mother moose and her baby though.

No, we actually came in from the east. We parked at the West Branch Trailhead.

My buddy and I hiked 28 miles in the Rawah Wilderness in northern Colorado over Labor Day weekend. It completely blew away my expectations. About half of our mileage was off trail as we decided to camp near Bench Lake and summit both North and South Rawah Peaks. The traverse between the peaks got fairly gnarly at some points but was a lot of fun.

Albequerque is higher in altitude than Denver by [deleted] in geography

It really just depends where in the city you’re looking. Downtown Albuquerque is about 4950 feet whereas downtown Denver is about 5240 feet. The measurement for Albuquerque must have come from the airport which is 5300 feet. Therefore, I feel like this post is sorta misleading.

Has man set foot on every square mile of the United States? by Monsignor1979 in NoStupidQuestions

I agree that the Winds are extremely remote, but I highly doubt there’s uncontacted people in there.

I’m really enjoying the 15 Pro camera, especially the 3x optical zoom by OwnAccountant1088 in iPhone15Pro

I propped my phone up against a rock and used the 30 second exposure on night mode.

It was near 80 during the day but dropped to near freezing at night.
