Looking at my image again, some people may like the transformation. It looks like it could now be a site for copper mining. 🙂

Mountains and mountains, no lake, but icicles.

Soon the hikers will need to make a choice between reaching the summit or having a Guinness.

Another amazing render Dave. It reminded me of those pictures of climbers queueing to summit Everest. Ed Hillary left that flag there when he and sherpa tenzing made the first assent in 1953. It was not quite so crowded back then.

+ 1 that this is another amazing render, Dave!

Trevor, you are spot on with the lines to summit Everest these days, but I'm not so sure that New Zealander Hillary flew the NZ flag when he summited with Norgay. Wasn't the Union Jack the first to be raised, followed by the United Nations and Nepalese flags?

Bernie Sanders is from the North of the U.S., so he knows how to stay warm with his one and only Winter coat and the mittens sent to him from an admiring constituent.

Jane, I think I saw more mentions of Bernie's mittens in the Inauguration news than anything. I expect he was wearing thermal undies beneath that suite and that his face mask was made of Thinsulate. We use a Merino Possum mix for the ultimate in warmth and softness in our garments. Once you have worn Merino Possum jumper you can't bare going back to itchy wool.

Trevor, there have been so many stories about the mittens and the woman who made them and photos of Bernie from years ago where he is wearing the very same coat, which made me think about my own winter hiking jackets, some of which are 20, 30, and even 40 years old and they're fine. It's funny how fast this photo has become a viral meme! 😊 Does Merino Possum keep you warm when it gets wet like wool and fleece do?
