Remains of a Mountain

On December 13, 2015December 11, 2015 By Mike and Christy

What remains of a once mighty mountain is about to meet another dose of erosion. Rock and water, wind and ice are one. Looking out the car window on a quiet road in New Mexico.

A mountain is more than a ‘meager man’. It has given something that each and everyone has.

  Nice quote Raj, thanks for passing that along. Within that mountain we will find what we are.

        Absolutely.
        A simple rule known to man is ‘survival of the fittest.’
        Such as Mountains are here than we could have imagined and since they are quiet doesn’t mean that it can be ruled.
        Always, Be wary of mountains, as it gains its strength from your weakness.

        Raj, I agree 100%. I have experienced that first hand and gained much respect and suspect from climbing big mountains.

My favourite drives are through New Mexico on roads like this. We go there once per year to visit family. The desert and rock formations never cease to amaze me.
Nice shot. 🙂
