Mount Tower At Own Risk

OK, I'm doing a "thing" with the Throwback project. Going to run a few days with people pictures. Just because I said I don't do may of them... I guess I'm proving a point to myself. Hope you don't mind! (too much)...

Here's a real oldie, back from my backpacking days. Pretty sure it was spring '78, but might be fall '77 (my senior year of High School). Climbing the fire-tower on Tuscarora Ridge, not far from McConnellsburg, PA. Shot on slide film (Ecktachrome) on my trusty Canon TX.

The tower is long gone, but somebody posted a nice 360 degree photo of the view at google:

Your eye for a great shot started a long time ago, this is great.

@joysabin Thanks Walks@7! My success rate wasn't too high back then, but I got lucky every once in a while.
