(iPhone 13s, photo taken from video).

My state is well-known for its hiking and climbing locations.

The view is worthy for the climbing.

Anyway, according to the splendidly named Sir Mountstuart Elphinstone Grant Duff (who was British Under-Secretary of State for the Colonies), it “could be compared to nothing else in the world except the Great Wall of China” (that’s how Sir John Strachey summarised what he said, at least)

In the crypt of @stpaulscathedral.bsky.social, Mountstuart Elphinstone (1779-1859), Governor of Bombay & Historian of India, has been patiently standing in the cafeteria queue for decades.
Memorial to Mountstuart Elphinstone in the crypt of St Paul’s Cathedral, London. On one side of his statue is a trolley for cafeteria trays and on the other side there’s a fire extinguisher.

The view along the northern rim of the Stuart/Ingalls valley were simply astonishing. The route is a tad steep and exposed but well worth the effort and light scrambling.

Morning sun bathes Red Top Lookout, perched on snow-capped cliffs above the evergreen forest. Morning sunlight illuminates Red Top Lookout, perched on the snow-capped cliffs, as a black labrador retriever ventures toward the broad ridgeline. Snow-capped Mount Rainier towers over the hazy, layered ridgelines of the distant South Cascades. Snow-streaked Mount Stuart and Sherpa Peak, sentinels of the Cascades, stand guard over the tranquil Teanaway Backcountry under a clear blue sky.

This is my first time visiting Lake Ingalls in the summer and I was really missing out. The colors! Reds, blues, greens, and grays all combining in the most beautiful and interesting ways.

Reposting here because I enjoyed very much today's Beyond Notables find: a patent taken out by Helen Jane Mountstuart Russell, one of women in our Beyond Notability database (beyond-notability.wikibase.cloud/wiki/Item:Q1...) splendidly titled "Russell's Improved Holder for Railway Tickets"

Reading "Any Human Heart" William Boyd. Compulsive reading as have been the other two of his I've read. Why? His way of building a narrative through his thoroughly developed characters is outstanding in my view. #bookreview #booksky www.goodreads.com/book/show/77...

This view is from an incredible spot on the north end of Lake Ingalls. I spent a long time enjoying the pools and streams that were coming from Lake Ingalls and heading down into the Ingalls valley.

The Cruelty of Company – Satara State
On April 10, 1818, following the end of the Third Anglo-Maratha War, Mountstuart Elphinstone formally enthroned His Highness Kshatriya Kulawatasana, Sinhasanadhishwar, Shrimant Rajashri Pratapsinh Chhatrapati Maharaj Bhonsle, at Satara. Elphinstone, for his part, knew that to secure the tranquillity of this newly conquered country, he would have to conciliate the people – in other words,…

A black lab frolicks through broad, partly snow-covered saddle toward the steep, rocky Not Hinkhouse Peak under a clear blue sky. Small evergreen trees dot the left side of the mountain ridge, while the right side drops off the exposed rock and patches of snow. A black lab wearing a blue collar sits on a rocky summit, looking out toward the massive, jagged, snow-dusted Mount Stuart and Sherpa Peak. Wispy white clouds drift across the mountain's steep couloirs, and a dense evergreen forest fills the deep valley below under a partly blue sky.

Ahh what a lovely book. I used to tour with a band who checked themselves into hotels as Logan Mountstuart to evade screaming fans. Some of us more likely to scream at Logan tho.

The views all around Lake Ingalls are incredible. I am partial to the north end of the lake. It's an extra walk but offers much more scenic views of the valley and Mont Stuart.

A v odd person, but a supporter of Byzantine studies, IIRC. He had a few run-ins with one of my gt-gt-granduncles who was Provost of Rothesay.
He used to have the blinds drawn at Mountstuart when Queen Victoria's yacht went past bcos of her mistreatment of his aunt Flora Hastings.

As we entered the park, I talked in a high style of my old friendship with Lord Mountstuart, and said, 'I shall probably be much at this place.' The Sage, aware of human vicissitudes, gently checked me: 'Don't you be too sure of that.' He made two or three peculiar observations; as when shewn the

Lord Bute, who commissioned this portrait as a memento of his son's Grand Tour, was so pleased with it that he paid the artist twice the agreed-upon price. Exuding the self-possessed confidence of a young aristocrat, nineteen-year-old Lord Mountstuart leans against a mantel displaying the utmost in sumptuous French attire: a fur-lined winter suit of turquoise silk, lace collar and cuffs, white silk stockings, and diamond-buckle shoes. Jean-Étienne Liotard depicted the charismatic English nobleman in an elegant setting--a re-creation of a salon in Geneva appointed with Rococo furnishings such as firedogs ornamented with cherubs and a Chinese folding screen used to stop cold drafts. Above the mantel, Liotard depicted Mountstuart's handsome profile and dignified posture in a gilded mirror. Lord Mountstuart, and to a lesser extent his reflection, are sharply depicted and project forward from the surrounding objects, which are blurred to create this optical illusion. This portrait is one of the largest pastels Liotard ever painted and the only one to show a full-length subject in a meticulously described interior. His skillful effects of scale, format, and illusion challenged the conventional medium of oil painting, and Liotard himself considered the work a masterpiece.
