Great Shot!

I made this unique shot of Longs Peak the current signature photo for the Front Range (Colorado) page!

Re: One of the Best

Thanks ... we paid the price for having interesting clouds by dealing with 40 to 50 mph winds all day.
Peace, Jim

Re: One of the Best

I've met those winds myself. My son and I climbed the Andrews Glacier several years back and thought we would just walk to the top of Taylor. The winds were so strong however that we felt like we were going backwards. We gave up after about 20 minutes. It was like trying to walk through a wall.
