Lone Pine & Mount Whitney Gallery
I’m not a very spontaneous person, so it was really out of character for me to decide at 10:30 a.m. on Saturday to make a run up to Lone Pine. There was a little motivation behind my madness, though. As you may have gathered, I’m a fan of the Eastern Sierra Nevada mountains, and one…

Zion National Park
