Description
My wife and I did a 4 day climb of Eldorado Peak. This required extensive glacier travel in an alpine environment, which provided expansive views of the surrounding mountains. This image was taken from our upper campsite looking across the Inspiration Glacier toward Forbidden Peak. I was very lucky to catch such a clear day for my photography and the summit attempt.
