At 9700 Feet

Remember a few weeks ago when

My Vickie and I hiked up to see

a waterfall above her old house?

Click Here to see it

 

Well, we only went a little

ways up that canyon.

John and Trigger went from

4260 feet elevation to 9768 feet

in an effort to get the following pictures

We hope you enjoy them

Although John will let My Vickie

come along when he is photographing

Moose, he does not allow her

to come along for the Mountain Goats.

To get photos like these

you have to be very patient.

You have to sit, sometimes for

hours, not moving, not talking....

And My Vickie

Well, she just cant do either

Besides the fact that you have

to hike straight up the cliffs.

My Vickie just slows him down.

John and Trigger are like

Mountain Goats.

They scale those cliffs

like they had four hooves

and incredible balance.

Luckily it was a beautiful Day

with blue sky's, at least

where they were.

The Bald Eagles have come

to our area for the winter

and they spend the nights

up high in the mountain

with the Mountain Goats

after fishing all day in the lake.

Many of you ask what kind of

camera John uses and if it has

a super strength zoom lens on it.

Nope, on these trips he wants

a small light weight camera such as a

Cool pix Nikon

Like most of the rest of you

we are expecting a huge snowstorm

to hit for Christmas Eve

And we want to finish

today's post with a wish

of Safety for all of our friends

out there in blogville

who will be traveling

through the Holidays.

Love

Bert, Allred and My Vickie
