Purpose
When I'm looking for great hikes I sometimes search online for photos of different areas. This website exists to return the favor.
Technical
Hillhaus.com has been hosted on Dreamhost since 1998. It operates on a modified PHP/MySQL blog script developed by B2Evolution. I'm constantly developing the interface and design.
As of 1/1/2008: 616,475 large images have been viewed.
I've finally installed a shopping cart and setup an account with Google checkouts, but until I get everything running smoothly please use the "contact" button at the top of the page to email me regarding any photo requests.
Environmental, public and non-profit organizations have permission to use my images without charge as long as they notify me first.
Add yourself to my announcement list and get periodic updates when I add new photos.

A joint on the Chesler Park Trail. We encountered a much more adventurous trail of this sort on the side of Big Spring Canyon on our third day - instead of walking on the ground through the joint, we walked on logs that were unevenly wedged into the walls 100 feet above the ground.

Fremont, Anasazi, Navajo and American people have all added to it over the course of 2,000 years.

Jay. The road opens on Memorial Day, which was the next weekend, so we had to walk 7 miles to the trailhead.

Some small waterfalls in a dense and damp forest.

Andrew. Don't worry: he's not drinking. He's more than 20 years underage.

Josh Sheets lost the mallet of a croquet club midswing. We still have no idea where it went.
