glacier

This is a depth I didn't want to explore! Glacial crevasse in the Bugaboo range of Canada.

This is from Glacier NP a few years back. I don't recall which waterfall this is, perhaps Alan does. But it was an area I really enjoyed exploring. I hope to get back there next summer, so I need to dig out my maps and figure out where I had shot this. I liked the way the rocks were uplifted...

Fantastic granite climbing, and powder heli-skiing in the winter, on these peaks in the Selkirks of BC.

I've already posted a few of Little-T taken from near Sunrise a week ago. Here is more of a mountain portrait.

The clouds were swirling around Mt. Rainier on this summer morning, the summit never came out before I left.

Looking toward the north face of Mt. Rainier from Sunrise.

Mt. Rainier's satellite peak was in and out of the clouds on this July morning.

I shot some of my friends skinning up for another run on the Paradise Glacier on Mt. Rainier on July 5th. The surface of the snow in the summer gets a light dusting from pumice, the turns we make skiing make nice white curves that contrast with it.

Tien Shan Range, Kirghizistan, 1989. We climbed the rocky ridge left of center on our way to the first american ascent of Khan Tengri.

The barren hills of Glacier, looking west, a couple years after the '03 fire. Still holds it’s beauty.

These were taken on a 3 day ski tour in the North Cascades National Park, The Forbidden Traverse. In the spring it starts and ends with a few hours of carrying skis through some slide alder which can be challenging. The views are some of the best in the park. Forbidden-N-face-pano by Jim...

Many people consider this profile of Eldorado Pk. in the North Cascades to be the most graceful in the park. Eldorado-sunset-2 by Jim Dockery posted Mar 17, 2018 at 5:55 AM

Most of the climb up the West Buttress is snow slogging with heavy loads. We would carry a load of food and fuel up to the next camp a few thousand feet higher, ski back down with empty packs, then pack up everything the next day and bring it all up to that next camp. This not only makes each...

I'm going to break this into 4 threads because I got a lot of shots on a 19 day trip up the standard West Buttress route in 2005. This was my first expedition using a digital camera. I went with a Canon Rebel XT for it's light weight with an 18-125mm Sigma lens. I brought a solar charger which...

These were taken on a trip to AK 12 years ago. I climbed, and attempted to ski, from the summit as a 50th b-day gift to myself. Afterward my wife came up and we rented a car for a two week tour where I shot these when we drove into Wonder Lake. Wonder-Lake-(4) by Jim Dockery posted Feb 7, 2018...
