Yet another awesome pic from Dave’s BackCountry Ski Blog.
This was taken from his recent trip to Mount of the Holy Cross. I love all the mountains in the background, that’s a beautiful sight.
Mount of the Holy Cross is the northernmost fourteener in the Sawatch Range, part of the Rocky Mountains in Colorado, and is located in the Holy Cross Wilderness near Holy Cross City (a ghost town). It was named after the distinctive cross-shaped snowfield on the northeast face. See here for a photo
(A Fourteener is a mountaineering term, in the United States, for a mountain that exceeds 14,000 feet (4,267.2 m) above mean sea level.)
