We were on the edge of Spring as the weather was relatively warm and variable and we were at the rising snow line. The weather was not ideal, could have been worse, and we were enroute to our daughters ski racing weekend. I chose to stop here as it is typically a beautiful, unofficial, viewpoint. No stopping due to avalanche and rock fall hazard. Although it was calm and dry, there was a very high and very white, uniform haze that I found challenging. This makes an especially interesting print as well. I went back at about the same time on a beautiful clear, calm day - see our website for the "nine days later" image.
