High on the Mountaintop!

For the longest time, I've been eying this mountain called Squaw Peak. I've been dying to get pictures off of there because it perfectly juts out of the mountain.

I finally got my opportunity today. Four of us decided to head up this morning at 10 and we got back around 3:30.

It takes about 2 hours to go one way. Moreso going up because there are tons of steep areas that really give your legs a workout! Of course, knowing me, I got plenty of pictures!

Here are the panoramas from the top (sorry about the random lines running across the pictures, it's hard to capture a moment as grand as this and make it look perfect):

This one I actually managed to get a 360 degree view shot!!! I was so excited awhile back when I realized the software that I use comes with a 360-degree option! So i definitely took advantage of it:

Cool pic of the smokey background:

Here's my dorm complex (mine is the right of the 2 that are parallel and oriented horizontally to the right of the small white building (the new Cannon Center) in the middle-left of the picture):

...the football game I didn't go to today :P

Don't die Rudy!

We were just chilling and enjoying the view when this random guy came up and did the most genius thing I've ever seen:

(If you can't see the vid, the guy had a bag filled with these helicopter leaves and would throw them out a handful at a time. It was genius because they actually caught wind once they were thrown out and they would fly upwards and away instead of down the mountainside!) It was soooo cool!!! He had like 6-8 handfuls of them too!

So yeah, it was a blast, and I felt like I didn't totally waste a Saturday ;)
