East Glacier Knob still in shadow, McHenry's Peak visible in the distance, and several peaks along the Continental Divide smothered by a layer of rosy snow clouds at dawn.
From left: McHenry's Peak, East Glacier Knob, and Otis Peak and Taylor Peak in the clouds, and Hallet Peak on the right. All but East Glacier Knob lie on the Continental Divide with elevations above 12,000 feet. My elevation here is around 9.500 feet.
