Hikers Pause for Selfie on Mountain Forest Trail

Saturday, November 1st, 2008 at 6:09:26 PM · 2008/cactus_to_clouds/cactus_to_clouds

Two hikers, Dave and Penelope, pose for a selfie on a mountain trail surrounded by tall pine trees and granite boulders. The man in the foreground wears glasses, a tan plaid shirt, and a backpack, while the woman wears a wide-brimmed sun hat typical of desert hiking gear. The terrain shows dry, rocky soil with scattered pine needle coverage, characteristic of high-altitude Southern California mountain environments. The overcast sky and sparse, wind-shaped pines suggest elevation well above the desert floor. The photo was taken during the famous Cactus to Clouds trail, one of the most grueling hikes in the United States.
