Beautiful photo

It really deserves "photo of the day", and hopefully in a week "photo of the week".
cheers,
Marc

Re: Beautiful picture

Thanks It is a place like no other I've been to. Immense is a good way of putting it.

Perfect!

This is the image I have in my head when I think about my trip there two weeks after this was taken...this captures it perfectly. Great photo!

Re: Perfect!

Thanks - this was a moment of "taking it all in" after climbing Fremont Peak before the hike out the next morning. It felt like I was somehow saying goodbye to someone I had a deep admiration and respect for. I'll be back...

Re: Perfect!

That's funny...I had the exact same feeling at about the same spot after coming down from Gannett. We're going back next year for some relaxed fishing and a climb of Fremont, Jackson and whatever else we get the mood for.
