September 20, 2024 - Scenery while driving on the Million Dollar Highway in Colorado on the way to Silverton.
Along the Highline Trail in Glacier National Park we cross a colorful rockslide. This is one of the awesome trails you can hike from Logan Pass.
A viewpoint from Skihist Provincial Park provides a great look at what Canadian Pacific and Canadian National have to deal with in this rugged part of the Thompson River Canyon. Providing a great example on the other side of the Thompson River of “In places like this, man sees his true size,” is a CN work train loading fallen rock into Difco dump cars in a never-ending battle with mother nature through this unforgiving piece of railroad between Morris and Lasha, east of Lytton, British Columbia, on September 25, 2015.
Given the seasons for freeze-thaw cycles, the typhoon months from May through October, and the seismic activity of intersecting tectonic plates and volcanoes, it is not surprising that rocks large and small that lie on the mountainside can be set in motion. In this photo the large rock wedged itself very near the walking trail.

The remote valley south of Mount Pitt, deep in Garibald Park (Summit of Mount Pitt is the high point at left-center). Very few people have visited this place in summer. Ski tourers cross through the headwaters in spring. Note the large waterfall hidden in shadow at lower right.
The road can be seen crossing several rock fall/ avalanche chutes on the south side of Stevens Ridge in Mount Rainier National Park, Washington.
came across this rock slide at a quarry community. very lucky no one was reported hurt
