This pano is taken from the top of Vista Peak. It is about 4.5 miles from the Baldy Trailhead in Eagle River, Alaska past Blacktail and Ptarmigan Rocks. This was a great fall hike near the end of September 2011. We even hit a little wet, short-lived snow before reaching Vista. Very dark and overcast day and I feel the photos reflect the mood well. We rushed down the mountain and barely made it to Shine's for some sushi and sake to cap the day off.
