Views from my journey to work today. I say "work" rather loosely, as I'm retired but how can a day containing such views be really considered labour? In reality, I would work for free as walking in such scenery and showing people the beauty of the Alpujarra and the mountains is enough for me. Today with a group of Scots, Irish, English and Norwegians all enjoying the day. For me, it's truly a labour of love.

El no se vende, el agua se defiende

La planta embotelladora privada que se proyecta en este entorno pretende extraer más de 250.000 litros de agua diarios, que viene a ser el equivalente a lo que consumirían 6.000 personas, o lo que es lo mismo un tercio de la población de la comarca.

@jds I love these! As I've said to others photos of the , I've never been there, but recently read Kim Stanley Robinson's THE HIGH SIERRA: A LOVE STORY and been inspired to try and get out there and see the landscape he so loves.

What else did we see 🤔 that's what we saw, not 1 but 2 of these beauties ❤ We watched them away in the distance as they 'played' in the sky mirroring eachother flying. I only have record shots because they were too far away, when one did come reasonably close it took us by surprise and I wasn't ready 🤣 But for me it was the highlight of our trip, It's an amazing privilege to have seen this pair.

A breathtaking view of the Sierra Nevada from Alabama Hills in California. The picture was taken in 2020.

The last of the pictures from our trip into the mountains. Mostly scene shots today. Can you spot the face in the rocks 🤔

I love getting up in the mountains before the sun rises. Yes, it's usually cold but the scenes as the light changes make it more than worthwhile. Here's a few from the other morning as the sun hits the mountain faces and lines of ridges fade back into the distance. The upper world has light and the lower world shadow.

Also can you spot the bivouac? Believe me it's there below the NE face of Mulhacen 3482m.

Some nature shots from our recent outing into the Sierra Nevada mountains. Vasar de Mulhacen, a night on the Collado de Siete Lagunas and all the way down, down, down, 1700m down to Trevelez. Great trip, legs still recovering from that decent 🥴 We saw plenty of wildlife, Iberian Ibex, Griffon Vultures, Booted Eagles, Red-billed Choughs, Northern Wheatears, Alpine Accentors. Not so many wildflowers left now.

Watching the sunset from the Collado de Siete Lagunas 3230m. The north east face/ridge of Mulhacen 3282m rising above.

The Vasar de Mulhacén is one of the favourite mountain track in the Sierra Nevada. Crossing over the spectacular north face of Mulhacén at half height.

Seemingly sensationally exposed but the reality is that it is much easier than it looks, although you do need a head for heights. Only in one place are hands necessary.

The summit of Mulhacén 3482m yesterday evening from our bivouac on the Collado de Siete Lagunas 3230m to the north. Milky Way showing in all it's glory. Cold temperatures too with strong wind blowing.

Tomorrow we have an overnight trip into the Sierra Nevada visiting the spectacular "Vasar de Mulhacen" path across it's north face. A open bivouac at night on the Collado de Siete Lagunas (3230m), with a knee burning 1600 metre descent to the village of Trevelez the following morning. Should be some really good photographic opportunities. Looking forward to this immensely.

Backpacked to Parker Lake for my son’s girlfriend’s first backpacking trip. Weather oscillated between sunshine and light rain, but it was still fun!

It always pays to stop and look at the view behind you when you are walking. The rising above and the north faces of and with the red roof of refugio San Fransico standing out.

This article was published in Nature magazine, and highlights breakthrough research that uses the fibers in the Digital 395 project (California Broadband Cooperative) to detect, measure and report in real time, earthquakes anywhere along its 600-mile length from Barstow, CA to Reno, NV. It’s a remarkable innovation that was spearheaded by scientists at Caltech, who asked the head of CBC, Michael Ort, if they could use dark fibers for their experiments after the Ridgecrest earthquake a few years back.

Here’s the link to the published article in Nature:
