JMT 2020 Movies
https://wandering.earth/index.php/2020/09/13/jmt-2020-movies/
For those of you who don’t want to enjoy the greatness of all 9,000 photos from my JMT 2020 trek or the also great (but less massive) 2,200 photo highlights, I’ve put together a ‘Best Highlights’ Flickr Album.
Only 586 photos.
Not as great as seeing all of the photos, but still a pretty good selection of the best pictures.

Great pictures! Wish you could have named each one’s location.
Thanks for posting.

Yeah, but with 9,000 pictures, it’s hard to label each one. 🙂
The Flicker pictures are in order taken, so you can kind of trace them with a map.
The reports describe the pictures included there.
