Stairsteps to the Sky

The late afternoon sunlight illuminates the 7000 foot/ 2100 m transition from the White Rim in Canyonlands to the summits of the Manti La Sal Range, with (left to right) Mount Mellenthin - 12,645 feet (3,854 m), Mount Tukuhnikivatz - 12,482 feet (3,805 m), and Mount Peale - 12,721 feet (3,877 m). The peaks are lightly wreathed in clouds and clad in snow from the previous day, Note the shadow of the arch which is on the first ridge across from the viewpoint, in the lower left quadrant.
