EISPIRATEN

Had a free day today after some mornign errands and i seen the coulds break over mt wilson and spotted snow. I figure i go on a small hike some where. So i decided echo was a good one. Needed to test out new jacket i got from timberland ;D
Upon gaining cape of good hope i figure why not go to inpspiration and see if snow landed any where close! My plan was to go to dawn station and warm up dry off and pig out for a bit then return into millard and drop into altadena and walk back to my car...............but


Cameras love this weather





falls everywhere





After echo it was to dawn station for some comfort

burnt to the ground......I dont even remember what the sign said!
Then i said the hell with this!



run off





Goretex is your freind! cotton yor enemy

I love hiking in weather like that. Good thing you didn't run across any flash floods or land/rock slides.

was fun. like white mt but with water

Looks very nice! Will have to try it out this weekend. Hopefully the rain and wind will allow for clear views.

The sign @ Dawn Station talked about two donkeys named Jack & Jill that brought ore up from the mine. Now in the melted plastic I think I can make out the face of Charles Darwin.

My favorite is Herbert the Mule - heard stories that he used to break out of his shed, and take off into the canyons for a couple days before they could find him again.

Good job braving the elements Eric, and nice pics!

Herbert pushed the car on the OM&M Railroad so as not to kick dust onto the passengers.

Herbert's freaky nature is common in mules, especially if they have a good amount of Arab blood. That's why donkeys are the favored pack animal for narrow San Gabriel Mtn. trails.

Nice pictures edenooch.

Dawn Station before it burned...
