Those are some great shots, Bob. Great spring skiing vibes in the Beaver Mountain one.

Love it Bob, except for the snake. You look too happy and I don't know about the snake, but I guess he was making some noise. When you were done with him, did you just toss the stick and snake and everything?

Your raft on the Colorado looks like a pool toy :)
 
Took pics of snake then let him go. One of the two rattlers I've ever seen backpacking. It is a pool toy, Walmart vinyl inflatable...... that trip was pre packrafts. Went from Gypsum canyonn to Bowdie canyon. Was flat water then, I understand its got rapids now.
 
Terrific photos! That's one of the fun things about old slides - each one is a little mystery waiting for you to see what it is. Enjoy!

Yeah, but did you actually throw the snake? Like as far as possible or did you just put it down and hope it did not look for revenge?

I'm surprised that you have only seen 2 rattlers while backpacking, that seems really low for as much time as you have spent outside.
 
A storm is supposed to be inbound, and daylight is in short supply.
It's definitely November when 7pm feels like midnight.

I only had the red light on when I first saw this guy. He looked like a bush in the middle of the trail, only about 10' ahead of me. He did not care about me, until I turned on the headlight, then he wandered off trail.

That would have been a prickly bush.

At the start there was some afterglow. Then later, so many brakelights of poor peeps commuting home. These valleys are so overcrowded. I just cannot convince my wife to move somewhere quieter.

There is also a swing up here. Fun.

Nice porcupine shot! Where is this swing, and is that you on it?
