High Mountain Doings

From 8200 feet along one side of the Upper Arkansas River Valley in central Colorado, my blog is about many things: travel including river and bicycle trips, and other experiences as well. The focus is on photography, not lots of text.

Early Snowfall


Our first good snow of the season is falling as I type. The grasses in my yard are still standing tall, so the snow is sticking onto them, as in this photo taken by my woodpile this morning.

Underground Raiilroad Bicycle Tour, Ohio

On the road, finally! We bicycled 27 miles to Loveland, Ohio, on this day.

Downtown Cincinnati, seen through the windows of the Freedom Center.

Carl, who I think is the director, gives us a tour of the Underground Railroad Freedom Center.

Our baggage went into this Enterprise truck that was at each of our camps. This is what's meant by a supported ride. Cindi gets her bike ready.

Near the Underground Railroad Freedom Center in Cincinnati, Ohio, which is between the baseball and football stadia there. This is where our Adventure Cycling tour called Underground Railroad began. We took the cars to the Enterprise truck lot to park, toured the Freedom Center, had lunch, and bicycled away.

Flying Home

Airborne over El Salvador, having taken off and flown southward for probably fifteen miles before turning northward in the direction of the Caribbean and Houston, Texas.
"Pushing back" at the San Salvador airport, in view of one of the several volcanic peaks in the country.
