Early April Snow
Snow is visible on Cedar Mountain on the south side of Shoshone Canyon west of Cody Wyoming. The canyon cuts through the folded strata of the Rattlesnake Mountain Anticline. Paleozoic Limestones and shale make up the up 2/3 of the mountain face. The reddish brown cliff above the lake is a complex composed of a Precambrian Igneous and metamorphic rocks. The Buffalo Bill dam (not visible) lies between the two cliffs of Precambrian Rocks. The lake in the photo is the Buffalo Bill Reservoir which forms behind the dam.
