Ascending Dog Mountain

It is a simple matter of geography that if the heavens are somewhere in the skies above, then the path to them is up a mountain.

 

The mountain in question here was Dog, which Josh and I ascended on Fourth of July weekend and were amazed to see fields of Balsamroot in full bloom. We timed our climb perfectly to the the summit just as the sun was setting and I grabbed this quick image of the Josh hiking through the fields toward the summit just as the sun was limning the tops of the flowers. I have a version both with and without the wedge of sky in the upper corner, but ultimately I think I like this one better.
