I was sitting at the Lena Lake overlook eating lunch when this beetle came to visit and pose for photos.
Spiderweb covered in dew
By Bill
This was one of the many spiderwebs I found on the abandoned oil truck at the end of NF-9021 (accessible to hikers via the Zig Zag trail or dirt bikers via NF-9020/NF-9021).
The Milky Way from the Muir Snowfield
By Bill
This was taken at 2:00am at 9200' on the Muir Snowfield. It was socked in all day below Panorama Point but totally clear above. I woke up at 1:30am and looked outside the tent at a completely clear and gorgeous sky and made myself get up and brave the freezing cold to take photos for the next hour and a half.

12th Man @ Mailbox Peak
By Bill
It seemed like a good idea to carry up a 12th Man flag to Mailbox Peak in the freezing rain as an offering to the football gods on the eve of the NFC Championship game.
