Nothing like being on the rim of Grand Canyon.

I Can't Believe...But I Do Now! (Grand Canyon National Park) by Mark Stevens Via Flickr: A view looking to the north while at the overlook at Mather Point in Grand Canyon National Park. I pulled in on the focal length and angled my Nikon SLR camera slightly downward in order to capture a more sweeping view across the eroded formations, temples, and buttes. One can then more easily see the deep canyons carved by the Colorado River and other tributaries flowing through the national park. The North Rim would also be easily seen looking in a straight-ahead direction.

The Hat Creek Rim stretches south from Lassen Volcanic National Park with panoramic views of Lassen Peak on the south to distant Mt. Shasta to the northwest. While walking the PCT along Hat Creek Rim can be a scorching, arid test of character in mid-summer, today (November 3) it was strikingly beautiful.

The Hat Creek Rim is a fault where the earth’s crust has been shifted vertically. The floor of Hat Creek Valley is over 900 feet below the top of the rim. However, one million years ago the rim and the valley were at the same elevation.

Coming from the south, the PCT climbs from the valley floor to the rim which it follows roughly 20 miles to the north winding inland to avoid the relatively few gullies that penetrate the Rim. This can be a superb mid-fall walk.

Along The West Rim Trail

Zion National Park, Spring 22

[outerrimhorror]

So I made this blog literally yesterday late at night and fell asleep soon after, so I wanted to make this as a continuation of my previous post to give some more details of what this project is. So, Outer Rim is a world-building project that I began as a means to challenge myself and my writing abilities. I love writing, but I hadn't really done so in a very long time and I also believed that I sucked at writing horror. So, with the help of some good friends, I'm here to prove myself wrong and make something real spooky and, so far, I'm pretty proud of what I've got so far!

So to expand on what I wrote yesterday, this is a cosmic horror story that I hope to one day make into a game! You would play as a cowboy that lived in a settlement in Missouri that managed to keep itself isolated away from the effects of the meteor and it's abilities to completely morph the life around it. That is until word spread that wildlife with strange deformities were seen in the plains nearby, signifying that the mutation is making its way east. So you and other settlers come up with a plan to make their way to the old growth forests in Oregon as it seems to have been left alone by the mutation.

The gameplay would consist of recourse management as you cross the otherworldly, unnatural biomes created by the meteor, encountering flora and fauna that can both help and threaten your posse, meeting survivors that can help you on your journey or try and kill you, all while doing everything you can to make sure your posse makes it to the old growth alive. This project is inspired by The Oregon Trail games but with a cosmic horror twist to it. Here I have some concept art depicting some lovely wildlife you could find traveling the Outer Rim! These were illustrated by a good friend of mine who has helped me stay with the writing process of this project. Enjoy!

Grand Canyon, South Rim Trail 6/20/22 by Sharon Mollerus

Lassen National Forest, California

This was a grand loop hike full of destinations! Took in a stretch of the Hat Creek Rim (Pacific Crest Trail) before dropping down to Hat Creek itself on a little used trail. Hat Creek is really something. Then a stop by the Subway Cave before climbing back to the rim.
