The article includes some gorgeous photographs, and talks a lot about Cerro Torre, which is famous (notorious) for the ice mushroom capping its summit like the proverbial last straw.pohanginapetehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11463792721091291063noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-191028737265893759.post-45057728758363440522013-10-23T12:22:33.146+13:002013-10-23T12:22:33.146+13:00Came across this on rime mushrooms, which apparent...Came across this on rime mushrooms, which apparently like Patagonia.<br /><br />http://wasatchweatherweenies.blogspot.com/2013/10/mysteries-of-rime-mushrooms.html<br /><br />Zhoenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03515663141425057088noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-191028737265893759.post-78307240914634643182013-10-22T20:07:45.494+13:002013-10-22T20:07:45.494+13:00Zhoen, the opportunities for photographing were al...Zhoen, the opportunities for photographing were almost endless — which might explain why it was so difficult. I tend to like in-between places, too; I like the feeling of being between places. So full of expectation and potential.<br /><br />RR, the last paragraph has become famous. What a strange character he was. I don't know whether to admire or be appalled by what was either fearlessness or utter self-absorption.
