mountains

I emerged from the forest around Lake Josephine to find mountains looming all around the water with a backdrop of puffy clouds.

The hike had barely begun before Grinnell Glacier Trail awed with its beauty.

Horses graze and gallop across the whole field of view below the looming Teton mountains of Wyoming.

The endearing cuteness of the horses combined with the awesome beauty of the Grand Teton mountains to form the quintessential Western scene.

A rainy and moody trek down slippery rocks, through lonesome wilderness. I was somewhat worried, a bit more sodden and annoyed, but mostly excited.

This spellbinding view of clouds swirling through the Great Smoky Mountains greeted us at Clingmans Dome.
