    Garmin GPSMAP 60Cx $250

    Here's a photo of the GPS and all of the stuff that goes with it. The Topo map program is the old 1:100,000, non routable map version that I don't recommend you use anymore. You should still get the new routable 24k Topo map for whatever region you are exploring. I can fill the included 64mb...

    Midsummer Hole in the Rock Trip

    It really started out as the usual midsummer San Juan Mountains trip because there is no more pleasant and wildflower-rich location to spend a 4 day weekend in August. Adam (Gokracer1) and I had the trip planned for a month or so but neither of us could get excited about another trip to the...

    Experimenting with off camera flash

    A couple of years ago I got a speedlight to mount in the hotshoe of my digital camera. This got a lot of use as fill light for backlit daytime photos and I was pretty happy with the results. It gave me detail in shadow areas that would otherwise be underexposed. Unfortunately, mounting a...
