More Mineral King Because It Is Friday

Have a look at a few more photos from opening weekend in Mineral King.

Maybe I should learn to use Photoshop and fix that weird thing in the sky. (It is actually in the camera, not the sky.) I did know how to use Photoshop Elements (had to learn for the book, The Cabins of Wilsonia) but it quit working. Or it stopped doing what I needed it to do, and I can’t figure out how to fix it. So, here is a nice photo of Vandever with a thing in the sky.

Weird thing gone from camera lens, very blue and green kind of day!

Hey! This is going to be some kind of berry and I don’t think I’ve ever seen it before! I love that.

Soda Springs is looking bright. “Iron Springs” or “Rusty Spot” might be a more accurate name.

This is looking up-canyon at Aspen Flat from Soda Springs. These bright green trees are aspens.

And this is looking down-canyon toward Timber Gap from Soda Springs. Those not so leafy trees are also aspens.

Why are the aspens higher up more developed than those at a lower elevation?

Remember the Mineral King Bridge Project of September 2011? Now there are boards across the entire width! This means when people are sitting on the rails and a car goes by, the driver won’t feel as if he has to stay just on the running boards. He can actually move over so the sitters don’t wonder if a rear-view mirror is going to knock them over the rail.
