  • Geology Picture of the Week, July 31-August 6, 2005: Mount Cook (and a bonus)

    I was just wondering what the name of the highest mountain in New Zealand was, and I looked. In retrospect, I should have been able to guess. I would be unsurprised if Mount Cook is in the background sometime during the "Lord of the Rings" movie trilogy, even though they filmed the snow trek scenes on Ruapehu. And since I discovered through the process another nice outdoor photography site (link in header), below is a picture of a place I saw once, Porcupine Falls in the Bighorn Mountains of Wyoming (my family was driving to Yellowstone NP).
