I'd recommend just staying away from Iowa, we've had all kinds of weird weather this year. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

I will attach them to business and personal email at times. I did not take the pic below either but here is a link if you like what the French Alps have to offer: https://www.google.com/search?source=univ&tbm=isch&q=french+alps&sa=X&ved=2ahUKEwj8xJj7mZTuAhW_GFkFHddaAYsQ7Al6BAgGEFc&biw=1920&bih=1089 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Manche757 Posted January 11 Author Share Posted January 11 In the good ole USA. I did not take this one either but one I saved it a while back The Grand Tetons. There is dispute about who named them originally but French trappers are one group that called them "Les Troi Tetons", in English that is "The Three Teats" Curiously, that land was available and not yet exploited when John D Rockerfaller, Jr acquired it in 1949 and gifted it to form The Grand Tetons National Park, the big teats.

We just had a huge (for us) dump of almost a foot at valley bottom this morning. It’s one of those days that makes me wish I had an actual camera. Also kinda wishing I called in sick and went skiing. It’s been real quiet around the shop because every single piece of equipment is out working so I wouldn’t have been missed. But I did get the opportunity to lay some fresh tracks down the highway coming back north after a field trip so that was alright I guess. This is the view out the shop window just now. I’ll try to get you some from up at the hill tomorrow. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Yeah, I’ve seen them near the bridge I took that first pic from occasionally. Not long ago this was in the local paper. Apparently there was one moose that got mad if you tried to move away once it started licking your car, and actually stomped a few vehicles, prompting the warning. They’re along the road there year-round. I might even have my own photos... somewhere. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

The US National Park Service has described Moose as "majestic and silly" looking at the same. Gotta love that. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
