One Season Following Another

The summit of Mount Sneffels (14,153 ft; 4,314 m) rises into the dying light to bask in the longest rays, its craggy face shaped and wizened by tens of thousands of winters.

Darkened Pinnacles
Fractured pinnacles reach like fangs toward the brooding sky as a sliver of light strikes shoreline willows and cottonwoods to create a momentarily vivid reflection on the impounded surface of the Gunnison River, Curecanti National Recreation Area, Colorado.
