Very nice, David. I particularly enjoyed the shot of Hoodoo with------
Kamloops Lake stretching out in the back ground. Thanks.
Best regards,
Peter S.

Hoodoos are spires of easily eroded rock that have a more weather
resistant top. They are kind of eerie, so they're called "hoodoos"
and also have other names, from "fairy chimneys" to "goblins." The
really strange ones end up with heavy rocks balancing precariously
atop the spires.
Despite living here for some 14 years now, I did not realize we had a
hoodoo - and with a balancing rock atop it - until yesterday.
(Apparently, there are others!)
Naturally, today we had to go and find it. Finding the trail, it was
not so easy. Walking the winding deer trail, through scrub desert (with
warning signs about rattle snakes), in 29 degree (84F for our American
cousins) ... was less so.
Here is the wide angle view of Kamloops Lake with the hoodoo near the
center bottom.

Enjoy!
