SkyGuy-
I still use that pic as my desktop a lot. When I host on-line international meetings it always gets a ton of comments. Folks from Italy and Japan have admired your handiwork!!

And I use it to remind folks back east what real mountains look like

I too really miss that river. I still go in a funk every year once the days start getting longer.

I've never gotten over the Sky being closed in spring so I'm pretty sure I'll never get over the Sauk too being closed
