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 large cow in front with a young bull behind her. Moose are great swimmers and can easily cover long distances with surprising speed. We watched these ones for 5 minutes as they effortlessly swam the entire length of the cove.
Not a very good photo, but I wanted the capture the moment anyway. All of us were hopeful about seeing moose during our week on Isle Royale. This was the first of four that I saw. We hadn't even been on the trail for an hour.
Prolonged exposures make lakes look like gelatin.
The ferry we took to Isle Royale from Copper Harbor. Ferries also service the island from Houghton, Michigan and Grand Portage, Minnesota.
Copper Harbor was one of my favorite places to visit while I was in college, even though it's 600 miles from Ann Arbor. It's located on Lake Superior at the tip of Michigan's Keweenaw Peninsula (a large subpeninsula on the northern side of the Upper Peninsula). It's the most remote destination in Michigan, even farther from a city than Isle Royale. Unless you're a northerner by heart, don't go there in winter.
