I'm impressed just by the fact that you were able to get this close this winter.... this was a really rough winter to be running around taking pictures outdoors...

I was up that way this morning and it was cold and windy, there was a big frost on Grandfather. Daniel

May 01, 2010 14:46 | #11 That is supposed to be changing soon... ownership is supposed to change from the private owners now, to the state .... once the state owns it, it should be free. .... and for us locals, we get 2 months a year where we can go for a reduced rate.... April and November I think... Canon 5dmkIII, Sigma 15mm f/2.8FE; 35mm f/1.4; Canon EF70-200 f/2.8L IS II; --- YN560 x 7

May 04, 2010 08:36 | #12 The rate change would be cool, although it doesn't bother me. Hopefully once the state takes over they don't start to build unnecessary whatever there to try to get more attraction money. Lee

May 04, 2010 12:39 | #13 I'll be interested to see if when the state takes over, they add more "safety" precautions... but I kinda like being able to walk around on top of the rocks... to walk out to the edge and look down...

There is some golf course/private club right on 221 where the backdrop is GFM....very beautiful. I was in the parking lot and it was snowing on the mountain and not where I was. Fortunately I had my 55-250 with me, so I was able to zoom in a decent amount.
