We
began taking pictures in 1966 with an old Kodak-110 and from1980 until
this year we used a Canon AT1 35mm,
now we use a Kodak DC-280 Digital..

| We rode our BMW
Motorcycle on many of the trips we took into the Sierras. On
one such ride we encountered
snow,
as the 'town' of Mammoth is at 7800 feet. We were the only motorcycle
on the mountain that weekend. We drew a lot of stares as we rode around
the town with people with skis on the tops of their cars.
There was quite a bit of ice on the road but the BMW handled it like a
champ. |

The image above shows the
power of an avalanche. |

Left: Mammoth Mountain
Ski Lodge
(Elevation 9,900').
The lifts were operating. From the lodge we took the shuttle
bus to 'Red's Meadow'
(Elevation
7,700'), located in a valley just to the west.
The object above, circled
in red, is a black bear.
