Prusik Peak in the fall is an alluring sight. The larches turn bright orange and if the weather co-operates the blue skies punctuate the landscape.
I luckily won the lottery for a permit this fall and last week I spent 5 days in the Enchantments, exploring and ogling the colors.

Oh, please do, Andy. I want to see more of this enchanting place 🙂
I have so many more…will get busy. I want to see images of Purgatory Creek!
Right now there isn’t much water in Purgatory creek and I haven’t been down there for a couple of weeks, life has got in the way 🙂 You may have to wait a while as I got O/seas next week
I’ve been there. You captured it beautifully!
Thanks BJ, when did you visit there?
These photos are simply stunning Andy.. and so clear. I can almost smell the rarefied air.
Hey Martin,
Yes, the cool fall air is so clear and crisp, its such a wonderful time to hike, no bugs and great colors…you are up in Whatcom County, is that right?
Stunning shots. Lucky you with the permit. 😀
Yes! Lucky with the permit and the weather!
