Trailhead, Cottonwood Canyon, Gallatin National Forest, Gallatin Gateway, MT.
CONCERNING AUTHOR ROBERT PIRSIG’S SKILL & TECHNICAL ACCURACY, AS CONFIRMED BY MR. PIORO’S PHOTOS IN THIS ALBUM:
…As you will see in This Album, Mr. Pioro’s Photos consistently show that Author Robert Pirsig, in writing his Narrator & Chris Mountain Climb, has quite accurately, again and again, written the landscape of the Gallatin National Forest Mountains, into his Narrative Story.
…We may assume he did this with Topo Maps, and his general experience from being in Montana Mountains, without actually ever been in the exact landscape he writes into the ZMM Book’s Mountain Climb Narrative.
…But WHY did Mr. Pirsig spend so much evident effort or achieve this accuracy” …The SECOND reason for Mr Pirsig’s accuracy => Mr Pirsig said something like the following:
"For success, ZMM needed all the support it could get. " He went on to say: "For the reader to accept the overall central philosophic messages of ZMM, the story travel narrative must seem to the reader, absolutely real." And for Author Robert Pirsig, the way to achieve this, was to be both interesting and absolutely accurate & factual with his travel scenery narratives.
...And that, I believe, is one of the reasons, why the ZMM Travel Narrative, and especially the Mountain Climb Narrative was added to ZMM in the first place.

PLAN & PHOTO ASSIGNMENTS FOR THIS ALBUM:
… As you will see, at the bottom of each caption => Many of Mr. Joe Pioro’s photos are assigned to a N+C #, that is close to the N+C location of where he actually took the photo.
…However, after N+C 05, about 2/3 of Mr. Pioro’s photos, are assigned to a photo N+C location, which is FAR AWAY FROM where he took the photo.
....This is because I needed a photo, to Illustrate the ZMM Narrator’s Passage, and this was the best Pioro Photo still unused. These “far away from” photos are indicated (at the bottom of each caption), by words “Photo Simulate ”
.
...Here you as reader, need to know that a major reason for => Mr. Pioro’s lack of Photos (especially after N+C 09), that specifically show what is at a specific N+C Trail Point => Is due to the fact that he could not climb, the very dense forest, growing with the a abundance of water near Fox Creek.
… Here you as reader, also need to know this => Upon Mr. Pioro’s arrival back from his climb, he said => “ Everything was perfect until N+C 12, but I could not find a way to N+C 13, close to the creek. Especially at N+C 12, it was hard to see the knoll.
… Looking up into Fox Creek Canyon and its creek, basically I could see it would be exceedingly difficult for me to force further. Perhaps, bush whacking a day, might gain the ridge at N+C 15. Thus I hit a real barrier.
…Because Mr. Pioro, did not, as did the ZMM Narrator, have “a machete from the pack on my back. ….He at this point gave up, found his way back to the History Rock Trail, and hiked on it, over the mountain ridge, to the paved road in Hyalite Canyon, for a ride back to his own car, at the Cottonwood Canyon National Forest Trailhead.
…Eventually, Mr. Pioro might seek an easier route, going in by way of the History Rock Trail, where it goes through Fox Creek Meadows.
..Send an email, if you want to know details concerning these photos having a “far away from” assignment. Ditto, if you have any questions or are confused.
…Eventually, AT THE END OF THIS ALBUM, will be found a First Sub-Album titled => Mr. Joe Pioro’s Photos Of Fox Creek Cabin, And Photos Along History Rock Trail, From Fox Creek Cabin To The Paved Road In Hyalite Canyon.
… A Second Sub-Album, Will Show The Remainder Of Mr. Pioro’s Photos Not Otherwise Displayed In The ZMMQ Gallery.
