"3 IN ONE."
The first frame contains Mt. Fairview, also called
Fairview Mountain. The native Americans call it the "Goat Mountain."

It is 9,003'

This is a popular easy scramble via the Saddle Peak
hike where a footpath leads expirenced hikers to the top. DO NOT ATTEMPT TO ASCEND OR DESCEND THIS FORMIDABLE CLIFF BAND I have registered, though it looks easy. You MUST, MUST, MUST take the Saddle Peak hike route. Numerous hikers have been rescued for having disregarded this warning.

The first ascent took place in 1893 by Samuel Allen & Walter Wilcox.

Views from the top are BREATHTAKING(Personal ,expirance ... about 26 years ago.)

Second frame contains Mt. Lefroy on the left and Mt. Victoria, center & right.

Have detailed the Mt. Lefroy story on last night's posting.

Mt. Victoria has a formidable glacier, pieces of which fall off the cliff from time to time, causing a ROAR similar to a BOMB that can be heard 20Km. away. It is well worth making the hike up to the TEAHOUSE below Mt. Victoria ( Plain 6 Glaciers) just to witness this extra ordinary spectale of nature.(Workshop will be posted.) There are 2 glaciers here; the UPPER VICTORIA GLACIER & the lower one.

3464 M. in height. It was also ascended in 1897 by Samuel Allen.

Here you have it: "3 IN ONE."

Hi Aires.
You have shared well composed and nice frames. I like your note very much too. POV, details, exposure, contrast and colours are very good. Perfect done and TFS.

Hi Mario,
What a great idea to present these mountains this way. Let me be really honest. The clarity and sharpness of these two look much better then those you posted before. It make me wonder what you do for PP work. I might be able to assist you in getting them as good as these. All three of them, that is including the WS one are stunning.
TFS,
Niek

O, Mario!
You are so generous to share with us two photos at a time. Obviously you are not afraid of comming winter and bad weather, when you may have to rely on stocks... Anyway, each one of the two is just remarkable. You prove to be one of the best mountaineer photographers on TN.
Thanks a lot!
Anton

A very nice presentation of each of them, with lovely photos and notes. It really is a pleasure to read them, you know :)
Excellent POVs on both, great colors and good exposures.
Very well framed and composed.

Bravo and TFS
