Cache Valley 1-18-2010All in one day the whole valley has cleared out and is no longer smoggy. It is really nice that there is no smog because of the health effects on living organisms and quality of life. I know that there are many people out there that think that there isn't much we can do but I think that something needs to be done to help reduce pollution. Reducing pollution won't make the inversions go away nor will all of the PM2.5 go away. However man kind is the largest contributor to the dirty air.
Cache Valley 1-19-2010So one day later a storm comes during the night and warms up the area. On Tuesday the air was warm enough to melt snow for a significant amount of the day. The breeze was blowing from the south and the air was just fresh to smell and felt really good in the lungs. This led to the temptation of going for a bike ride which was done. The bike ride led me to North Logan to as high as a bicycle to be ridden on the bench. The view is quite beautiful in the opinion of Brian.
Well I have many more pictures that are worth looking at. The pictures are pretty obvious on which day they were taken.

Winter rides are cold, but enjoyable. The snow packs down to be about as hard as pavement when people walk on it. This also happens if snowmobiles are traveling on the snow a lot and the snow doesn't stay too cold. Sublimation occurs if the air is too cold and makes it so that the snow won't pack down very well. Just a few pictures from the winter rides.

So I went on a bike ride up Leatham Hollow twice. The reason that I went more than once is that I didn't quite make it to the end of the trail the first time.
The ride up Leatham Hollow is for the most part a decent ride with only a short distance where the incline is rather steep. There is also a section on the lower part of the trail that is a rocky and I just walked my bicycle over that part.
So perhaps you are asking where the pictures are and so here I go on posting the pictures!
Thimble Berries
August 4th, 2009Well I went on a bike ride up dry canyon just so that I could eat some Thimble Berries. I saw them last Saturday on my ride but I didn't know what they were. So tonight I decided to go and try them out and they have a little different texture than they look like they have. The berry is very good at selling itself. However the selling point is also one way it has gotten to reproduce so well. From the outside the berry looks like it doesn't have a lot of big seeds, but looks are deceiving. There are actually probably more seeds than a raspberry and so there is actually a fair amount of seed crushing going on. The berry is what I would call not domesticated. We as humans have domesticated everything we really liked and put pressure on the plants to cater to us so much so that without our help the plants would die off without us.
Jardine Juniper
July 31st, 2009Well I went on a bike ride up to the old Jardine Juniper tree in Logan canyon. Well I should say that I really more or less sort of raced up to the tree. The trip up took me 55 minutes and I took the scenic route on top. I then took a bunch of pictures which I'll be putting up on this site once I get the functionality added. So the ride down took me about 30 minutes. I could have come down faster except it was getting dark and that was slowing the decent down. Still the time it took to ride up and down was only 1 hour and 24 minutes. In the day light I can actually come down the trail in about 20 minutes simply because I can see the trail a whole lot better. Well until I get the pictures posted.
Jardine Juniper
This is the tree at the end of the trail. Being in the presence of the tree made me feel young. The question came to my mind of, "What would tthe tree say if it could speak?" I decided that it wouldn't say anything that hasn't already been said on how to live one's life. The tree is 3,200 years old according to the information board that they have up there. The tree is old enough to have seen wars, and civilizations come and go on this continent. It survived the three days of darkness too.
Information board
The board reads:
JARDINE JUNIPER
THIS ROCKY MOUNTAIN JUNIPER
HAS BEEN ALIVE FOR 3200 YEARS
WITH RESPECT IT WILL SURVIVE
MANY MORE. PLEASE ENJOY THIS TREE
FROM A DISTANCE.
Logan Canyon
I thought I would take a picture of Logan Canyon. I would suggest not to walk straight down the mountain from the tree as the slope is very steep and I'm sure there are a few cliffs below. I don't want to have to call search and rescue.
