Red Mtn Hike



The flora and fauna... well, at least the flora.

The top of the Red Mountain Ridge on the way to the lookout. Looks like a crocodile's back from here.

And the smoke from the still active fires filled all the valley west of Red Mountain.

What's left of the Red Mountain lookout. However what is left is a mind-boggling view. This is one of those "you gotta do it once" trips.

The hellicopter landing pad from... well, you know... that "other" place!

On one side of this pad is tall trees, and on the other, the abyss. You definitely don't bring student pilots into this one!

And here is the abyss, complete with car-sized rocks, and helicopter-swallowing lakes.

Now that I can see where we came from, why in he-- did we want to go there in the first place? You humans! I wanna go home!
