Title: Pictures of mountains
Post by: ranny9 on January 23, 2015, 08:00:05 AM
Wow, I love the "mountains" of my adopted state of Pennsylvania. Sorry Bill Sartore, but growing up near the Rockies, I call this a hill :)
But it does have great sedimentary layers showing; this pic is of Mount Tammany.

Most of my photos of mountains are pre-digital... :-( 
But here's one, the famous Maroon Bells outside of Aspen, CO

I always loved that stretch of the "Sea to Sky Highway" on the drive to Whistler with the Cheak River canyon dropping off (steeply) on the side of the road.

Over the years of taken hundreds of mountain pictures but this is one of my favorites.  Shot from the Whistler Train.

My kinda mountains. They are not the biggest but they sure make you feel small. Believe it or not I actually took this photo.(https://modelersforum.com/gallery/35-070416205123.jpeg) (http://modelersforum.com/gallery/35-070416205123.jpeg)
