I'm not sure what the real temp was. The pic looks really cold because of the snow and cloud coverage. I've heard the top of the mountain is usually 30 degrees cooler than Colorado Springs. The hairpin pic was probably at about 12k feet.

The weirdest part about driving up there was how different the car performed. I climbed most of the way in first and second gear (especially on the dirt sections at the end). My car had absolutly no grunt in the lower revs and would almost stall if the revs dropped below 3 or 4k. I didn't realize what a difference the lack of oxygen could make. Going down was a breeze.

Great job Richter - the bottom shot is my favourite; would have liked it even more had you cropped it closer-in. :D

This will be my last fall pics for this year. The leaves are now falling off the trees. A few of us made a trip up to the North Georgia mountains for a little fun. Windows down, sunroof back and 42º... It was nice! In the train: L8APEX, WHENSON417, Gimlet (and wife) and me.

Ga Hwy 19 North toward Suches.




Richard B. Russell Scenic Hwy at the top of the mountain.

The sun was pretty low in the sky this afternoon so there are a lot of shadows. Made for some interesting pictures though.

Pics taken Under The Hill in Natchez, MS with Pentax Optio 550 and resized to 800x600 for easier viewing.






















Edited for location and camera info.
