Following up from my post in the B&W forum: color shots from above Middle Fork Lake, heading up to the saddle above Pronghorn Peak. Funny thing: I'd been re-listening to the Harry Potter books & had just finished the one where Harry finds out that his father's nickname was 'Prongs". Seemed appropriate to then be looking at Pronghorn Peak. This first one was about 1/4 of the way up to the saddle that, in one direction, looked at Pronghorn and Dragonhead and the other way to Bonneville Peak. The second is from the aforementioned saddle. I was hoping for the sun to break through, but at the one break in the clouds, the sun's rays were too weak to reach Pronghorn, so I packed up, just beating the first lightning strikes less than a minute later. The thunder was maybe 3 seconds behind. My dog & I hightailed it down the talus slopes back to our camp 2 1/2 miles below.

Beautiful scene Monika! My son backpacks through the Wind Rivers range and it's one of his favorite places.

Thanks, Bob! The Winds have gotten much more crowded in the last 3 years, thanks to COVID........ I started thinking of the Fremont Trail (part of the Continental Divide Trail) as the Freeway Trail

That is some rugged country there, Monika, and you have demonstrated it well here!
