Quarry in Waite Park, MN

I climbed up this hill from the side of the road…with only tennis shoes on. Brrr. My goal up at the top of the fence was to see the quarries that you can barely see when driving by.
Once I got to the top, this is what I saw…I was so bummed to see trees blocking my view.

A little further down I hoped I could get a better view from here where there seemed to be no trees.
It was still hard to see the great view like I had hoped through the fencing. This was taken with me reaching my camera as high as I could to get above the green slats in the fences...Indeed it is a vast space and it would have been awesome to get behind the fence and really take in the vastness!
When I got back in my car…oh my were my feet chilly. Funny how things like the potential for a good shot are worth a little discomfort.Aside from a few fence shots that I actually like and this barbed wire one, I would have to say that this attempt was a bit of a bust. Of course I would try again if someone had a cool trick, but for now, this is as good as it gets :)!
