Gorillapod bendable tripod

Here's a terrific accessory for photographers on the go. Tripods are great for time-release photos or group shots, but their size and weight can make them impractical to lug on a trip. The Gorillapod is small, lightweight, easy to pack, and nothing is not flexible-it's made of dozens of joints that bend in any direction. You can secure a camera to all kinds of surfaces, from a road sign to rock face. The Gorillapod comes in a choice of colors and three sizes to fit digital, single-lens-reflex and professional cameras.

又见那片白桦林

虽是初冬，7000ft 以上已经有雪了。旧地重游，又见到了那片白桦林。

Frary's Peak, Antelope Island

Frary's peak trail is about 3.5 mile one way with an elevation gain of 2200ft. It's a strenuous trail that leads to the top of the Antelope Island. You can get a 360 panorama view of the great salt lake area, its surrounding mountains, and other islands in the lake.

Buffalo Round-up

The buffalos are being rounded up,
get microchipped, vaccinated, and sorted.
About 520 stays on the island.
The rest go to auction
or get transported to other places.
