Mt. Ballard

Mount Fissure as seen from Mount Ballard.
Nice quick trip up Mount Ballard this morning, and I do mean up. This short 1.6 mile hike up is relentlessly ascendant, as you can see. The 1.6 mile return trip gives the lungs a break at the expense of the leg joints.

Mexico.

Looking down on Bisbee.

Why do certain Christians think the rest of us want to see their proselytizing detritus on the top of every damned mountain?
1 Kings 18:37-38King James Version (KJV)

37 Hear me, O Lord, hear me, that this people may know that thou art the Lord God, and that thou hast turned their heart back again. [Whatever the hell that's supposed to mean, taken out of context and all.]
