I returned last night from a trip into the Wind River Range in Wyoming where I backpacked into the Deep Lake area from the Big Sandy Opening trail-head. As much I like to photograph the prairie, there are times I need to return to the mountains and the alpine environment; places that are close to my heart and I came to love when I first ventured west as an undergraduate geology student at Franklin and Marshall College in Pennsylvania. Although I have visited and traveled in many of the mountain ranges in the West over the last 35 years, I have not really been back to the “Winds” since I was a serious technical mountain climber back in my 20’s and 30’s. It was an immense pleasure to travel once again into what I consider to be some of the finest mountains in the West and I was blessed with interesting weather and some stunning light. The two images below were made early in the morning on August 14 in Deep Lake cirque with the rugged and magnificent peaks of East Temple and Temple Peak rising over the lake. I was very fortunate to have fabulous early morning golden light, along with perfectly calm conditions that allowed me to make an almost perfect reflection image of Temple Peak in the lake. It was the start of a wonderful day in the magical environment of the alpine zone of the Wind Rivers.

I was in the Wind Rivers at the same time. It is beautiful and you have really captured what they are like in these two photos.
