Coast Mountains - Atmospheric Distortion

5 x 1.5 long-range panorama crop of a little mystery I was observing in the distant mountains south or south-east of Whitehorse.

I have not figured out the name of the dominant mountain in the photo yet. But to its right, on the flank of the middle range dropping down from the right side, there is a large gap visible in the far range.

That gap and snow-covered front looks distorted, like snow or fog flowing over this section, especially the part that looks like a monument.

Some strong atmospheric distortion [fata morgana effect] was happening there.
