Very cool photo and great story behind it Good work to the both of you
Thanks Errol. It sure was an adventure. Yeah, I made it. Errol, you were a super navigator. Hum, maybe I should have wore some makeup. Looking kind of "white". Aloha
Splendid image my friend, such a great place, thank you for sharing!
What an adventure! She looks great!
this is a good shot of her. maybe one day i went there one day
That is hard to do at that altitude! What level did she start at?
An excellent picture Errol and a great video and music to go with it.
@whaleman.... From the parking area, the starting point was at about 13,000 elevation level. The trail to Lake Waiau is about 1 mile and at that high altitude, it is not an easy walk. Aloha
congrats...what a lovely picture...and look how proud she is...love the background
Well done that lass! A wonderful capture, dear Errol. Hugs and Aloha. Di. xx
Nice to see the lake again. And Stella is looking good too.
Wow Errol. What an awesome place.
Wonderful view.
With no oxygen? That must have been hard...
What a brave lady she is and a wonderful view this is awesome job on this hon Aloha.
fantastic capture
Great capture. To have the photo, that means you hiked it too>
Superb landscape, excellent photo!
She looks like a UFO hunter. ;) Wonderful capture! :)
Love the hat and matching outfit~ ;) Congrats on the accomplishment! Last Sept I walked a broad, paved winding path about 1/2 mile long at 6000 ft up to 6600 (?) ft to Clingman's Dome, the highest point in the Great Smoky Mtns. The air seemed thinner even there and the walk was difficult for me as I was/am still recovering from shoulder and back injuries (now much better but still issues). I stopped and rested many times over. Can't imagine your hike and height!
superb capture
I would have been glad to hike her :)))
Seems indeed a great hike in a fantastic landscape ! :~)
Such a brave woman, and this shot is really fantastic, Errol!
big hike! like the shot..
Wonderful capture of this beautiful place and awesome lady!!

Great pic of Stella, standing and raring to go against that desolate backdrop, but at that altitude, where is her oxygen mask? Aloha.
sure was nice to see Stella post again and to see this capture of her doing something so cool(cold according to her)
