Mt. Rundle, Bow River, and Hoodoos

We were 6+ miles into our 10 or so miles of hiking on this day when we were rewarded with this view. We had it all to ourselves for about two minutes and then 40+ people, who had merely driven to this spot, showed up. Back to the trail and Surprise Corner we went.

Wallowa Mountains sunset (August 1, 2024)

Take off (August 1, 2024)

This guy took off at just over 8,100 feet and within minutes was well over 10,000 feet. He flies around for a few hours, lands on a different mountain, and sets up camp before doing it again the next day. He was down to some sardines and a family-size bottle of liquor on this day.
