Since we broke my favorite camera, I'm using a old backup camera. You might notice why I replaced it. It sometimes has what looks like fingerprints in the upper right corner. Adds character.
This is a cirque - a bowl-shaped, steep-walled mountain basin carved by glaciation.

What an thrilling view! It didnt look too steep a hike either! a 50 mile view is pretty darn good!
ReplyDeleteSpectacular views. And a lot different from what we hope to see when we go to Hurricane, Utah next month. What camera is broken? The small one you got such good photos from? These sure aren't shabby.
