Spectacular!

However, I had to put on sunglasses to avoid
the glare from all that snow! Congratulations!
The Alta/Brighton skiers must be lovin' it!!

Re: Spectacular!

Thanks Larry! Not sure about the resort skiers but we met a trio of telemark skiers in the cirque on the way back. Despite the warm spell and blazing sunshine, there were still stashes of powder to tap into on the North-facing!

Should have been POTD...

...instead of something like the 100,000th photo of Mount Hood.

Great shot-- sorry I missed it yesterday.

Re: Should have been POTD...

Thanks Bob! Actually I was sort of hesitant to take more pictures on this trip because we start getting quite a few redundant pictures of LP's knife edge in winter. I was busy looking for unusual angles this time, lest people say, how many more shots of this spot in this season do we really need! :)

Re: yeah but

you're right ... an action shot rather than simply a picture of a certain place at a certain time. I keep forgetting how the SP attitudes about people in the frame of a picture changed LOL!
