Overlooking Maroon Bells . . .

During the return walk from Crater Lake I had to stop for this view overlooking Maroon Bells with the morning light highlighting all the aspens in their autumn splendor. In the distance is Highland Peak at 12,326 ft.

 

This was the only morning of this short Colorado trip with bright sunlight . . . but what a morning it was!

 

This panorama is a stitch of multiple images.
