Meandering Snake River

In 1942 photographer Ansel Adams took a picture of Snake River standing on a car to give him better elevation and scope.  His pictures are world famous and were taken in black and white.  The photo above is my picture in black and white of the same landscape except there are trees and bushes now blocking the view of the river's curve. How technology and photography has changed since his time.  I am an amateur photographer but the advancement of the digital SLR camera and a computer with editing software gives me as good results.

Schwabacher's Landing and Beaver Ponds

 

At Schwabacher's Landing there were spring creeks, beaver ponds, and a hiking trail around the different ponds.  I was surprised at the number of beaver dams that backed up the water. It is located down a marked dirt road north of Moose Junction.
