Yes, Spring is almost here. Some of the poppy reserves are already opening up. I have also seen some really good pictures on our HPS fb page of many spring flowers. I hope you are getting out often to enjoy the outdoors. Our HPS Annual Awards Banquet held on January 11, 2020 was really fun. I called us all “crazy peak baggers.” We like getting up early and coming home late just to climb some obscure peak(s) somewhere in Socal. The Banquet was well attended. David Harris, our speaker, was entertaining and had some suggestions on how HPS could be even more successful. Congratulations goes to all those that earned certificates and/or plaques. Also, thanks very much to all who helped make the Banquet a success. I hope that you all enjoyed the Banquet as much as I did. Our next event is the Annual Spring Fling on May 30 & 31. It will be held again at the Keller Ski Hut in Big Bear. This is a really nice facility that we enjoyed last year. Check for more details in this Lookout. Note that our Waterman Rendezvous is on June 27. See you all there. At the May 3, 2020, Angeles Chapter Awards Banquet, Hundred Peak Section will receive the Citation of Merit. This is awarded to an Angeles Chapter entity for its help and support in Angeles Chapter activities and achievement of goals. This award is not often given out. We earned it. How cool is that! I am reserving a couple tables at the Banquet. If you wish to come, please contact me for details. Happy Peak Bagging.

We only had one entry by Dennis Loya and it is illustrated below. Dennis described his entry as follows: “The outline of the area is the shape of the entire Joshua Tree National Park, and the map is a blown-up area of the area of where 4377 is located. The medium is pen and ink, and pen acrylic paint for the red and blue topo symbols.” As the sole entry, Dennis receives a $50 REI gift card. For those interested in map design, there are many excellent books on the subject. Two recent acquisitions for my library are The Red Atlas: How the Soviet Union Secretly Mapped the World by John Davies and Alexander J. Kent (The University of Chicago Press 2017) and Cartography by Kenneth Fields (Esri Press 2018). For a collection of outstanding online maps, check out the ArcGIS Living Atlas of the World at https://livingatlas.arcgis.com/en/. ae Upcoming Navigation Events We started off the New Year with a big group at our Indian Cove Navigation Noodle. Our February Navigation on Snowshoes was well attended and all participants got the opportunity to try to hit me with snowballs. Mt. Pinos Navigation on Snow, February 1, 2020 Our next navigation noodle is at Warren Point on April 25-26, 2020. To sign up, please send your complete contact information (mailing address, telephone numbers) to me. At all of our navigation events, we can work with beginners. No prior navigation experience is required. All are welcome!!! I welcome your navigation questions. Contact me at [email protected]. ae Rideshare Points There are no Rideshare Points mentioned in the Outings in this issue of The Lookout. Note that new HPS outings are added to the online schedule of activities (Campfire Events) all the time, often only a few days prior to when the trip is scheduled to occur.

  • Ansel Adams by Ross Loeser February 2010
    Ansel Adams By Ross Loeser February 2010 Ansel Adams is one of the most fascinating people of the 20th Century… a photography pioneer whose art captured the imagination of millions of ordinary people. Most of the information in this paper is from his autobiography – written in the last five years of his life. I found the book a joy to read. Adams (1902-1984) was born in San Francisco and lived most of his life in that area. For his last 22 years he lived in Carmel Highlands. Some key formative events in his early life were: In 1916, when he was 14, he influenced his family to go on vacation in Yosemite after reading the book, In the Heart of the Sierras by J.M. Hutchens. During that trip, he received his first camera – a Kodak Box Brownie. He returned to Yosemite every year of his life thereafter.1 He was hired as a “darkroom monkey” by a neighbor who operated a photo finishing business in 1917, which enabled him to learn about making photographic prints. As he grew up, one major focus was music – the piano. “By 1923 I was a budding professional pianist…”2 On a bright spring Yosemite day in 1927, Adams made a photograph that was to “change my understanding of the medium.” The picture was of Half Dome, and titled “Monolith, The Face of Half Dome.” The full story is included later in this paper, but, in a nutshell, he captured how he felt about the scene, not how it actually appeared (e.g.

  • Manzanar National Historic Site Geologic Resource Evaluation
    MANZANAR NATIONAL HISTORIC SITE GEOLOGIC RESOURCES MANAGEMENT ISSUES SCOPING SUMMARY Sid Covington Geologic Resources Division October 26, 2004 Executive Summary Geologic Resource Evaluation scoping meetings for three parks in the Mojave Network were held April 28 - May 1, 2003, in St George, UT, Barstow, CA, and Twentynine Palms, CA, respectively. Unfortu- nately, due to time and travel constraints, scoping was not done at Manzanar National Historic Site (MANZ). The following report identifies the major geologic issues and describes the geology of MANZ and the surrounding the area. The major geologic issues affecting the park are: 1. Flooding and erosion due to runoff from the Sierra Nevada mountains to the west. 2. Recurring seismic activity 3. The potential for volcanic activity from Long Valley Caldera 4. Proposed gravel pit upslope from MANZ Introduction The National Park Service held Geologic Resource Evaluation scoping meetings for three parks in the Mojave Network: Parashant National Monument, Mojave National Preserve, and Joshua Tree National Park. These meeting were held April 28 - May 1, 2003, in St George, UT, Barstow, CA and Twentynine Palms, CA respectively. The purpose of these meeting was to discuss the status of geologic mapping, the associated bibliography, and the geologic issues in the respective park units. The products to be derived from the scoping meeting are: (1) Digitized geologic maps covering the park units; (2) An updated and verified bibliography; (3) Scoping summary (this report); and (4) A Geologic Resources Evaluation Report which brings together all of these products. Although there was no onsite scoping for MANZ, these products will be produced for the historic site.

    WTC Officers Remembering Gary Embrey By Adrienne Benedict See page 8 for contact info I first met Gary seven years ago, when I was a WTC student in West LA, and he was one of the group assistants. Gary was a friendly, WTC gentle, and patient teacher with an offbeat sense of humor. He could, and would, talk to anyone about anything - from politics and his- Chair & Outings tory to the identity of the animal that made the tracks we came across on the trail. Tom McDonnell Gary was with BMTC from 1985 - 89 and with WTC from 1999 - 2004, which allowed him to combine his loves of teaching, climbing Long Beach and the outdoors. His love of nature and fighting spirit also lead him to become an elected member of EXComm for 2 years where he Area Chair was instrumental in revising and improving the management of the Angeles Chapter's Outings program. KC Reid He enthusiastically encouraged his students and his friends in their outdoor adventures. "Gary was a caring and wonderful friend", Area Vice Chair recalls Cheryl Gill. "Especially when I would get scared on scary stuff and he would help me along the way. He is one of the reasons Janet Yee that I can even climb the smallest rocky summit to this day." Area Trips Mike Adams He was a dedicated recycler and "gear head". Area Registrar Only Gary could combine a soda can, a cat food Jean Konnoff can, and turkey lacing pins to come up with the perfect ultra-light backpacking stove setup.
