On Golden Pond

And it really is! Golden Ponds, Longmont, Colorado

The high peaks in the center are known as the Twin Peaks, Mount Meeker, (elevation 13,916 ft) is on the left, and Longs Peak, (elevation 14,259 ft) is on the right. The peaks are .7 miles apart. Both mountains are located in Rocky Mountain National Park. A brilliant sunrise to the east lit the foothills and trees, while the peaks remained in the shadow of clouds. A bit frustrating, but that's how it goes!
