Notch Peak

Notch Peak
High point (9654 ft/2943 m) of the House Range, in the Basin & Range of western Utah. Looking east--I finally managed to get a pic by late afternoon light! The cliffs below the high point are supported by calc-silicates from metamorphism by a nearby granite body. I've seen it asserted that they're the highest in the Great Basin, but I haven't been able to track that claim down. They _are_ popular with the wing-suit set; I've seen videos of them jumping off!

Smiley Derleth, tiabunna, Gudrun have particularly liked this photo

The shadows add extra depth, you caught the best time of day! I hope you managed to return with enough light to show you the way;-)

Yes, the timing of shadows can make all the difference. The wing-suit people can have their leaping off all to themselves! :-)

Thanks, everyone! I had been trying to get this late-afternoon lighting, and was almost too late!
