The view from the top today..........

Postby Rifleman » Wed Apr 23, 2008 1:03 am

The weather looked nice, the temp was rising, and the roads seemed to be drying out..........time to see how things are up on the top of our local Ski hill...........Mount Washington......... 8-)

So, after a nice ride up, I decided to capture some views on the way down before I got too cold......not all that great, but with only a point 'n shoot, I feel it may have brought back the mood of the day........sunny and warm once you get out of the wind...........

Out there is where I was......top of the high mountain........this was shot from the beach area just outside of the military base at Comox for the final show of the Snowbirds.........about an hour after the snow shots..........

My friend was skiing the ravine with his dad this past weekend and he fell off a cliff, if he wasn't wearing a helmet he would either be dead or a vegetable now... very lucky kid lol

Good evening all... :)

Wonderful shots Ken... ;)

You should explain to our "A mere e can"  and  "U ro pee an"  friends that snow tires are a must on all mortorcycles, bicycles and motorized vehicles eleven (11) months of the year along with snowshoes.   ;D LOL

Do you have any new photos of float, seaplanes or amphibian aircraft you could post, I am drooling.   :)
