Wow. Really really. Sunlight and Windom from Vestal or Arrow area?? I’ll look at a map…
Ooohh… that’s from Jagged, eh?? Great photo wherever from.
Thanks Green Onion, yes indeed summit of Jagged. Big trips in the San Juans never get old…
Both photos are really epic! I started this silly 14er adventure in the San Juans about 700 years ago as a teenager. Might hopefully finish in the Chi Basin area too someday. Glad you continue to enjoy the San Juans - Jagged looks incredible!

Yeah, the light from the sunrise spashing against the east side of Mt Whitney from near Trail Camp is always pretty spectacular (at least the two times I've seen it, it was).

Wait! You can't legally climb Lindsay anymore? When did that happen? WOW, Good thing I already did that one.
