In the fall of 1959, the LIFE editors sent staff photographer George Silk back to his homeland of New Zealand. He brought back a spectacular set of color and black and white photos which were published in the March 21, 1960 issue. This image ran with the following extended caption: “New Zealand’s "Fujiyama.” Mount Egmont rises in symmetrical majesty above a bank of low-lying clouds and North Island’s rolling Taranski district pastures, some of the most fertile farmland on earth. Once these lands were densely covered with rain forests which the settlers cleared by felling and burning. After the lands were cleared, the New Zealanders brought in poplars and pines from England to creat fast-growing hedgegrows to protect the cattle, sheep and hay from the winds. The device incidentally created what looks like a replica of England’s own gentle landscape. As a boy Silk skied on Egmont’s slopes and climbed to the 8,260-foot summit when he was 16. “I was pretty thrilled,” he remembers. “It may not be the tallest mountain in the world but there’s nothing else high near it and you get an impression of tremendous height. It dominates the landscape for miles and it’s a great sight, no matter how often you see it.” (George Silk—The LIFE Picture Collection/Getty Images) #MountEgmont #NewZealand

Singer Glen Campbell has died at the age of 81. Pictured here is an outtake with his guitars from the Sept. 6, 1968 LIFE feature on Glen - “The Country Hipster.” According to LIFE: “Glen Campbell is a country boy who has made a fortune singing country music. But he has shucked most of the corn from it, keeping the twang out of his pleasant tenor and rarely cracking a yodel. His gold records, ‘Gentle on My Mind’ and "By the Time I Get to Phoenix,’ won him an astounding four Grammy awards this year.” RIP, Glen.

From the Aug. 4, 1940 issue of LIFE, 77 years ago this week—VACATIONS: American’s Summer Travels Take Many to Grand Canyon. According to LIFE, “Now the summer climbs to its mid-season peak. Over the warm land moves a host of Americans on vacation. More than ever dreamed they could, vacationing Americans travel. They get away from their year-round life by going to see something different…About 300,000 vacationers get to the Grand Canyon and stand on the rim wondering at the great earth gash.” Some things never change. The image above ran with the following caption: “A gay vacationer cools off at the bottom of the Grand Canyon.” (George Strock—The LIFE Picture Collection/Getty Images) #thisweekinLIFE #Waterfalls #GrandCanyon

From an unpublished photo essay by the great Bill Ray - Hells Angels, their old ladies and hangers-on outside the Blackboard in Bakersfield, California, 1965. Ray told LIFE.com, recalling his time with the Angels. “They didn’t have jobs. They absolutely despised everything that most Americans value and strive for — stability, security. They rode their bikes, hung out in bars for days at a time, fought with anyone who messed with them. They were self-contained, with their own set of rules, their own code of behavior. It was extraordinary to be around.” (Bill Ray—The LIFE Picture Collection/Getty Images) #1960s #California #HellsAngels
