This is one of my favorite places in the world. Pretty much my backyard of where I grew up. Maybe a 3 hour hike out of Eagle River, Alaska. I love these mountains as much as anyone should love huge piles of basaltic rock.
This is from a 4400 ft peak called "Black Tail Rocks". I think this was (11) 35mm frames combined into a pano. This is from September when the lighting is getting pretty low on the horizon and really warm (the light). The colors were a bit hard to get right so it's a bit technicolor.
Our local astronomy gatherings happen way back in that valley under the most rugged mountains in the background. They shield the light dome of Anchorage from us and leave a pretty good SE - E view.
