Denali

I was going up to the cabin today to hang some sheetrock and got distracted "again". These are the results.

After seeing this on the way I couldn't resist going on North for a closer look. After all, the mountain is behind clouds most of the time. Took this first one through the windshield, so it's a little fuzzy.



Get a little closer and this is what you see



If you want to stay at the Denali Princess Lodge this will be your morning view.



One more close look.



The gallery is here.

Was the day a waste? I don't know, but I enjoyed it.

Thanks. Every time the mountain is "out" (of the clouds) I want to go take pictures.

Awww, poor guy, got distracted from hanging sheetrock - I hate it when that happens. (Dohhh. Sheetrock, shmeetrock - take pics when you get the chance! Especially ones like these!)

If you keep this up I may have to stop looking at your posts, as it's been way too long since I've been up to Rainier/the Cascades/Olympics (waaa!) and these pictures are going to drive me insane and I'm going to have to do drastic things to GET OUT.

Hello Wiley,

Isn't it amazing how a couple of fraction of a second pictures can take so much time . Anyway, beautiful pictures. Thanks for shairing.

Thanks for the comment. I'm sure the mountains here are like the Alps there...they are constantly changing in their "look". They create their own weather, and if one had the time to just stay at a good observation point you could create a huge gallery with every shot having a different look.

I've never been in the Alpes with a camera... and my past vacations in the Alpes are way too old for me to remember and even be able to reconsider them with the photographer's eye )
