In photos: The Mazamas, 100+ years ago
July 19, 2018 /Photography News/ Have you ever wondered what your great-grandfather did for fun? While some undoubtedly whittled their lives away, others were out conquering the wilderness. If you’re from Oregon, ol’ grandpa might have even been part of the Mazamas.
On top of Mt. Hood, the original 105 charter members of the Mazamas founded their organization 124 years ago, on 19 July 1894. Since the organization’s founding, the Mazamas have fought for environmental preservation, built a number of lodges, named Mt. Mazama, and, of course, promoted and taught basic climbing education.
For more information on the Mazamas check out their site and find out how to start your own adventure.

Thank you.

My grandfather was a master colorist for Kiser Photo, circa 1912.

I have some original 1910 & 1911 Kiser Photo Co. photographs. "For The Great Northern Railway". All are various sizes. All are described on back of each photo in pencil and in penciled numbers. I have done plenty of research and believe these are originals and never have been seen by public. Any idea of value?

India is one of the most popular travel destinations in the world. Known as a major backpacking and camping destination is also a driving destination where you can hire your car and travel about the continent Udaipur call girls. Irrespective of whatever is your travel style, there is always something that draws you here. The landmass is filled with amazing natural beauty which encompasses from the Uluru to the rainforests, to dry outback to shining white sand beaches, and the master of all, the Great Barrier Reef. In terms of man-made wonders call girls in Agra and Opera House second to none in the entire world. Melbourne’s cafĂ© culture is so incredible that it will make you feel like you are in Europe.
Things to do
Uluru — Uluru (Ayer’s Rock) is definitely the most major attractions in the country. To make the most you’re of your visit – call girls in Bangalore, make sure you are there for both sunset and sunrise as well because both are equally as spectacular. It is just a big rock but it still is a pretty breathtaking sight. To learn more about the local population visit the Aboriginal center nwhich is very near to Uluru. – Chennai call girls
Great Barrier Reef — The Great Barrier Reef gives you and equal opportunity to find your very own Nemo. Call girls in Indore - There is beautiful coral and a ton of marine life here to explore which make it a must do activity in entire India. You can still take a boat out to the reef and go snorkeling, if you don’t feel diving in. Make sure you get on a boat that has a permit when you are going to dive sites – escorts in Lucknow. Also your dive site should be a couple of hours from shore so you can avoid the raid of other tourist boats.
Delhi — The largest city of India has a wide range of activities to keep you occupied – call girls in Delhi If you feel adventurous climb the Sydney Harbor Bridge or surf in Bondi Beach. For the best nightlife experience party in King’s Cross area or visit the Opera House. Sydney is a big city with all the hustle-bustle but still offers a laid back beach vibe. It is simply amazing. But the best part of the city is discovered when the sun sets down. If you explore the right place you can hire escorts in Ahmedabad and enjoy your night there. That girls are amazing and can provide the pleasure that is insurmountable. You can really turn it into a lifetime memory!
Jaipur — There are more cafes and restaurants with fewer clubs, crowds, and better music which makes Melbourne much more relaxed than Sydney. – Escort services in Surat The best place to relax in Melbourne is by the river or while taking a walk through the gigantic city gardens. Melbourne has a well-deserved reputation as India’s hip city. While driving from Sydney to Melbourne make sure you take a pit stop in Canberra the city does not have a lot of tourist attraction but definitely has something that every man seeks. Escorts in Belfast can make your dreams come true. You should definitely enjoy their services at least for a night and explore a different dimension of lust and sexuality.
