Very enjoyable - nice to trek through the snow like that. Our highest
so-called mountain, Scafell Pike, is less than 1,000m. When I went to the
top it was February and the snow was up to my hips, but it was very
enjoyable - I imagine your trek would be

Mt. Rainier - 4392 meters, 14,411 feet, 105 km or 65 miles to my south
linearly
Mt. Baker - 3286 meters, 10,781 feet 90 km or 56 miles to my north linearly
But I will never climb either one!
:-)
Those heights are much more challenging than our
a little blue on my monitor,
but maybe there's lots of blue up there. :-) Our tallest peak in Illinois
is Charles Mound at 1,125 feet. We just have mounds here in the Midwest
:-). Cheers, Christine

North Carolina has no snow capped peaks - maybe a little in the winter, but
it doesn't linger more than a day or two.
The highest mountain in NC is Mt. Mitchell at 6,684 feet (2,037 m). It's
actually the highest in the whole Appalachian chain that

Congrats indeed. I missed that it was a blogpost, therefore didn't need a
URL...
Well I should have provided you folks with one none the less. Thanks
for bearing over with me.
Probably, they get everyone on top the same way they do here

Those heights are much more challenging than our little peak though...
Everything is tradeoffs; your little peak isn't an active volcano.
Skews the balance further, afa I can see. :-)
I'd love to see an active volcano, though. I remember I flew over Etna

Mike, if we assume a solid interest, might be better and cheaper to hire
one house with lots of rooms. I wonder if the Gnutty Norwegians can
swing anything?
No chance at the end of October, I'm afraid. Our mid-term holiday is
in the beginning of the month, and

I don't need any central-nervous toxin to come across as plain silly.
Apologies, Joe...

From me, or to me?
hmmm...
From me, anyway. Despite not being British. :-)

4 images in a blogpost describing the circumstance.
I chose to bring the K-7 and the FA 43mm f/1.9 for this, and it proved
to be a very nice little combo, fitting into the front pocket of my
jacket (anorak).
Drop me a hint if the PP is off the mark. I don't trust this laptop screen...

Perhaps it would help if all PDMLers were just a mite tipsy when we view
each other's imagery. Might also help us skip the words, as well. Who wants
to read a drunk's prose?

Hei Stig Vidar,
I was member of Sandnes Fotoklubb from 1996 to 1998. Great bunch of
guys, and even a few gals. Lot of fun.
The PDML has become one of the more remote corners of Pentax
cyberspace. Glad you found your way here.
