Vacation Skyviews

Sunday, September 16, 2018


The following posted images are from my recent vacation to Yellowstone and Grand Tetons national parks. Above, a US Highway 212 switchback near Beartooth Pass in southern Montana is seen at 3:19 pm MDT on Saturday, August 18, 2018. Thick clouds at just under an elevation of 11,000 feet churn over the land. Embedded in these clouds were sporadic lightning discharges.
