The Iao Valley State Monument in #Maui, #Hawaii, is not just all about the unique Iao rock needle feature - it is a park area with other mountains and tropical beauty, including this #flowing stream below the peaks.

A few Summers ago, I hiked from Donner Pass up to a spot looking down on a hut on Frog Lake where I think was where that party stayed before their fateful departure. Very nice country, but those conditions were perilous this Winter.

Yes, and Arizona has a lot of it in their mountains.

Thanks, Jaycee. It was hard to capture the utter peacefulness of the perfect weather day along this trail, which I guess the oudated word "mellow" describes well, but some of the other pics I have of it show more of the surrounding mountains too. Maybe I'll add some of those for display later also.

I can often take part of one large brunch meal back with me, but I liked the idea of taking advantage of the variety for the takeout on these two.

Yes, there had been fire on some of the mountainsides along the Thompson Trail too, but the meadow valley survived it mostly unscarred and the whole scene was quite beautiful even so, especially in peak Fall colors!

The Thompson #Trail along the West Fork of the Black River in the White Mountains of #Arizona is somewhat of a definition of serene & peaceful. A mostly level stroll through meadows & forests, with views of nearby mountain peaks, for #ForestFriday.

My little trick was to order two meals at a #brunch spot where I couldn't choose between them, then bring home leftovers from both for later enjoyment, for #FoodOnFriday. Vegetarian chilaquiles and corn based fusili hit the spot, as my dog viewed from below, hoping for an opportunity.

A #trail down Donner Lake Rim Trail heading into Johnson Canyon, near Truckee and Donner Pass, #California. This is unfortunately not far from where the fatal avalanche occurred recently, but is a very scenic Summer hike. For #ForestFriday.

Yeah, usually it can be pretty green there in early Fall if the summer monsoon was at least half baked.

I can see why, all the elements came together there and you caught it just right!
