Readers of A Peek at the Peak (The Peak) and e-Peak Newsletter often comment about the beautiful photographs that we publish on the cover of the magazine or online for e-Peak. GPPA's Peak Calendar enables visitors to download a monthly calendar featuring pictures of our area, its people, and events. The downloaded calendar can be used as "wallpaper" for your computer display.
