A very narrow slot canyon appropriately named Spooky Gulch twists and turns for several hundred meters through a dry desert landscape. Its walls tower many meters overhead while the opening in front of you seems to get smaller and smaller. Those hikers that are both brave and thin enough to fit through will find that they are able to make it to the opposite side. At its narrowest point, the little canyon is only about 30 centimeters wide! [Escalante National Monument] [Spooky Gulch info and photos] / Copyright © 2004 Brian W. Schaller – All rights reserved.

Sailing Stone - Racetrack Playa, Death Valley National Park, California, USA
by Brian W. SchallerUS$21.38–US$114.00
Here in one of the hottest places on earth, large rocks appear to race one another around a dry lake bed leaving long trails behind them and small piles of dried mud in front of them. No one has seen them move but the evidence shows that they do…somehow. The practical theory is that the combination of seasonal heavy rains and very high speed winds can push these rocks, sometimes weighing as much as the average person, across the slippery muddy surface of the usually dry lake. On cold winter nights, sheets of ice probably also contribute to the movement of these “sailing stones.” [Wikipedia entry – Racetrack Playa] [U.S. National Park Service website] / Copyright © 2004 Brian W.

Wikipedia: “The Devils Marbles Conservation Reserve contains formations of naturally rounded and oval boulders called Karlu Karlu by the local Aborigines. The area is located near Wauchope, 114km south of Tennant Creek in Australia’s Northern Territory … the boulders are suffering from solarisation. Because the temperature differences between day and night are so great, the rocks expand and shrink a little bit every 24 hours. This causes some rocks to crack, sometimes even splitting them in half.” [Wikipedia entry] / Copyright © 2007 Brian W. Schaller – All rights reserved.

Trees - Mount St. Helens National Volcanic Monument, Washington, USA
by Brian W. SchallerUS$21.38–US$114.00
A stand of trees stripped bare by the volcanic blast of 1980. Photo was taken in the summer of 2002. The top half of the image is original except for the monochrome treatment. The bottom half is a mirage, or reflection, of the top half. In reality, all the trees shown here are standing on a small hillside with tiny newborn trees growing around them. The original color version of this photo is shown below. [Mount St. Helens website] / Copyright © 2008 Brian W. Schaller – All rights reserved.

On this day, a forest fire started by some careless campers filled Yosemite Valley with smoke. The result you see is a very murky background revealing little of the valley floor far below, but highlighting a solitary hiker brave enough to walk out to the edge of Half Dome’s point – the “visor”.

Imagine… you’re looking down from the summit of the world’s tallest mountain, measured from its base at the bottom of the Pacific ocean to its summit at 13,796 feet (4,205 m) is a total of 33,000 feet (10,000 m) – the clouds you see are below both the summit and the cinder cones, and the blue/green is the ocean, not the sky!

Imagine… very early morning at the “end of the road” in the northeastern section of Hawaii Volcanoes National Park. Before sunrise there are several lines of bright orange/red flowing down the side of the Kilauea volcano. After sunrise the lines become very faint but wisps of smoke curl up in the distance, seemingly only a few miles away. Hiking out takes longer than expected, following the old, cooled and very uneven lava flows toward the smoke. Eventually you come upon the scene of an active lava flow passing bushes and a solitary tree by the town that had been wiped out by flows some years before. The heat is intense and is increased substantially by the numerous small fires that break out and then dissipate. The lava advances very slowly until it begins covering even more of the road surface of the abandoned town, along its relentless path to the sea.

Great Gorge of the Ruth Glacier - Denali National Park, Alaska
by Brian W. SchallerUS$21.38–US$114.00
Flying into the mountains in a ski-plane to land at the top of the Ruth Glacier in Denali National Park. The dark line that follows the curve of this river of ice is a medial moraine composed of rocks and sediment that have been compacted together as the ice continued to move down the mountain. The Great Gorge is reputed to be the tallest, steepest-sided gorge in the world – including the depth of the ice, which is about 3700 feet, and the visible mountainsides at about 5000 feet, it is about 8700 feet deep!
