Back to the Rocks - Tuesday 1/2/2007


We took B&J to the Devil's Punchbowl for another hike. Down to the creek at the bottom. This rock has been carved by water even though the creek is dry about half the year.



Sun on underwater leaves.

The ranger told us all kinds of cool things about the geology of the Punchbowl area. Stuff I've heard and forgotten and new stuff too.

He also pointed out that we could see both Mount Whitney in the Eastern Sierras and Telescope Peak in the Panamint Mountains on the east side of Death Valley from the parking lot. Amazing. That's more than 100 miles.

Made me want to start driving for the desert right then and there.

I absolutely love this shot. Amazing detail. What type of camera do you use?

Surprisingly, the camera is a Kodak Z7590. It has a 5x optical zoom (10x optical/digital).

I've had it for about a year.
