At 0.75 miles deep and more than 2.5 miles wide, the Brigham Canyon copper mine in Salt Lake City is the largest human excavation project in the world. Looks pretty sweet in gigapan too! Check out the "tiny" trucks going up the road on the far side. They are carrying about 250 tons of rock on tires that are a...

Kilbourne Hole is a well preserved example of a maar volcano. Here we can see tephra layers blown out by the eruption overlying an older basaltic lava flow. The tephra is relatively light in color, but contains many mantle xenoliths, which makes this a favorite collecting locality for geologists.

A shot I took looking down into the Wentworth Golf Club terrain from the green at Hole 15. The shot was around 44 images total, and was shot with a Canon 5dmkii and 180mm f/3.5L lens. There is some post involved here to bring out the colors instead of the dull winter tones & some minimal sharpening. I am planning o...

Nothing quite like a chair lift to get one to a good vantage point! And I got done shooting this one just in time, too - an approaching thunderstorm threatened to shut down the lift within a half an hour of the time I got off the mountain.

This view is North of but close to the Jackson Hole airport. An airplane would come in close to the top of the Grand Teton, but I never did have the camera in the right positing when this happened. Shot with Nikon D5000 and 300mm lens

This is a closer view of the tephra blanket that erupted from Kilbourne Hole. Some stratification and crossbedding is visible as well as many of the basalt clasts and other debris that was disrupted by the eruption. Good luck trying to spot a mantle xenolith at this locality, though - it's on the south side of the cr...
