Sunshine !



Tuesday started 2 1/2 days of magnificent blue sky and sun. The mountains have been spectacular with their fresh cloaks of snow. This evening I watched more clouds blowing in, erasing the mountains, only to have the peaks reappear a few minutes later. In the binoculars the ridges seem larger and exciting. I thought of the early climbers on these mountains and the equipment they must have used. Equipment has changed, and the mountains still draw people in for the same reasons.
Moose are enjoying munching on the willows, and Bison are foraging in distant fields. Yesterday morning I saw a Bald Eagle sitting on the ice finishing a breakfast of fresh fish. Photos of mama Moose hiding her little one in the brush, and Mt Moran.
