Tips and Tricks

STREAM WATCHING - While lightning strikes on mountains result in most fatalities, flash flooding in canyon country is the greatest danger.

This change in water clarity can indicate a thunderstorm miles away setting up conditions for a flash flood.

Questions and Answers

question I like your winter colors on the site. Are you going to begin posting winter pics too? Just comming from a fan fond of the site.
answer Glad you like the seasonal color scheme change. You can thank my outstanding Webmistress (her term, not mine) for the cool change. I try to mix in images that are relevant to the current season, so yes I'll be posting winter shots in the near future.
