Good Morning, 11:00AM It’s currently 30 degrees and cloudy - socked in. Yesterday’s high was 34 degrees with an overnight low of 8 degrees. We still have 7” inches of snow on the ground. Road Closure Updates: https://goo.gl/HikrMr -- Punching through the deep snow, I labored forward. A combination of inspiration and curiosity motivated me to move. The conditions made the snow heavy and slick - I trudged on. Since arriving on Mt. Le Conte, I had thoughts of photographing the mountain from different perspectives, different angles. Today would be one of those days. When the sun set, I would be in the spot I’d stared at weeks before. I looked down, tracks from a more experienced neighbor reassured my route. The black bear knew best - this must be the path of less resistance… I labored on. So it goes, Seth “All truths are easy to understand once they are discovered; the point is to discover them.” – Galileo Galilei

SpaceX rocket launch today at 1:30 pm at Cape Canaveral and might be visible from Apollo Overlook, which got its name from a Apollo launch sighting.

Where is this place you refer to as Apollo. Overlook? Why is it such a mystery? I thought I was quite familiar with the mountain top but I do not know where this spot is. Please help me out.
