Great stuff - but that 2nd image of the wildflowers has to be prize winner.

Thanks Shawn. Hey, just drive out 46 and as you approach Cholame the hills look like lava is pouring out of them. Just awesome! The day I took those pictures was kind of stormy and very windy but I did the best I could.

I really like the first one. Hope your ride was nice. My sled wouldn't start yesteday as I was trying to move it to put away for the season. No fire for some reason.

My brother has a cabin at Bear River Reservoir. We snowmobiled into there and spent a couple of nights. One night by moonlight we took a 13 mile ride to the top of a peak. So cool! the snow was frozen so we could go cross country without fear of sinking in and getting stuck.

Just Fantastic photos! I agree that second shot of California poppies is a prize winner!

Went back out there today and took some more in between rain showers. The flowers were not opened up due to the wet and cold but still got some interesting shots. Pretty fortunate to have that spot 30 minutes from home.
