Japanese relocation, California. A view of the quarters at Manzanar, California, a War Relocation Authority Center where evacuees of Japanese ancestry will spend the duration. Mount Whitney, highest peak in the United States, is in the background

The black and white photograph shows a snowy landscape with several small, wooden structures that appear to be temporary housing units. These could likely represent the quarters at Manzanar, California as mentioned in Japanese relocation information about War Relocation Authority Centers where evacuees of Japanese ancestry were placed during World War II for duration internment.

In the background are snow-covered mountains and a tree with barren branches indicative of winter or late fall season. There's an electrical pole standing tall on one side of the image, suggesting this area is somewhat connected to infrastructure despite its rural setting. The ground appears covered in white which could either be snow or perhaps fog given that it obscures some details about what lies beyond.

There are a few people visible within and outside these quarters - likely evacuees themselves - adding life into an otherwise stark scene. Their presence underscores the human element of this historical event captured by Dorothea Lange, known for her work during such periods documenting both suffering as well as resilience in face adversity like war-related internment camps across America.

This image serves not only as a visual document but also prompts reflection on history and social justice issues surrounding mass incarceration without due process.

Hiking down with SAR after they had rested and drank water.

Lessons
Summiting Mt. Whitney is a serious undertaking that requires research, training, proper gear, and experience. Hikers must have the humility and self-awareness to turn around when weather, personal fitness, or other factors make summiting unwise. Hire a guide service when you are inexperienced and/or don’t have the proper gear. 4/x

Mount Whitney And The Milky Way

Description: A friend of mine asked me for a print from our 2017 attempt at climbing Mount Whitney (he made it, another friend and I stopped short, but happy). That seems like a good reason to put it up for today's Photo Of The Day.

Summited #MountWhitney and back in a day! Yet people couldn't help but stare at my stylish gaiters.

Near the start of the trek to #MountWhitney summit Lone Pine Creek cascades down toward the #AlabamaHills.

A tight view of a tiered cascade over two large natural granite benches leading off to the bottom right. The near foreground is dominated by large boulders atop larger horizontal slabs.

Previously I posted a tight shot of first light on Trail Camp Tarn, Mount Whitney which emphasized the intensity of light. Here is a wider shot of the lake itself. Trail Camp is located along the Mount Whitney Trail at an elevation of 12,039 feet. It is the last source of water before the 99 switchbacks on the way to the summit. #photography #photo #nature #landscape #landscapephotography #art #mastodon #easternsierra #mountains #mountwhitney #lake #sunrise
