Sunset time at one of the highest places in Colorado. Mt Harvard is the 3rd highest, barely 3 foot lower than Massive and 14 lower than Elbert.
Looking south into the Horn Fork Basin in the foreground and in the background you can see Mt Yale in the center and to the left is Mt Princeton.
The coyote pictures you saw in my previous post were taken at the level of the lake (Bear Lake) below.
Saw this guy on my way to the Mt Harvard. Somewhere around 12500 elevation at the Horn Fork Basin. Never seen coyotes at this elevation before. Definitely one of the highlights of this ascend.
On my way down after sunset, in complete darkness, I heard a few of them talking to each other above me, when I was at around 12000… They were probably talking about my fashion style… or maybe plans to catch some dinner.
Crossing Horn Fork Creek in pitch dark night on the new moon a few days ago. I went up to Mt Harvard (14,421 elevation) for sunset and then had to descent in the complete darkness for good 3.5 hours all the way down to the trailhead. As I was crossing this creek I thought that it might be a cool picture with running water and that beautiful sky. It turned out nicely, what do you think?
Btw, the mountain in the background I believe is Mt Yale.
30 seconds at ISO640 with about 1 or 2 seconds of my headlight to light up the foreground.
What do you think about this one? Pretty epic, if you ask me!
Pink hot sunrise at 14,000’+ elevation. Grays and Torreys Peaks in all its glory.
