Wichita Mountains Wildlife Refuge (III)
May 5, 2010 by mike

  

Sunrise in the Wichitas.  That’s Mt. Scott, often incorrectly labeled the tallest peak in Oklahoma (it’s not even close), but still a formidable pile of granite in the top photo taken at sunrise last Saturday.

I was 9 years old when I climbed Mt. Scott with my dad, uncle Jack and cousin Tony.  It was my first real outdoors experience in the Refuge.  The place has been very special to me ever since. 

The last thumbnail photo is taken from the parking area at the top of the mountain.
