Those made my furnace come on.
What is the red color?
Have we lost all zoom/enlargement abilities with this new platform?

I'm reading a book on John Colter. During the Lewis and Clark Expedition they lost some horses in those mountains. Colter went, alone I think, and retrieved the horses and shot a mess of deer in his spare time. Dude knew how to live.

Looks like a good place for a Gondorian signal tower.

Re: Mountains, including purple majestic ones

The Canary Islands photo has a rainbow, but getting the pot of gold ain't happening without a jetpack or personal chopper.

So maybe elsewhere...

Re: Mountains, including purple majestic ones

There must be a pullout there as there are at least ten pics on Google with the same composition. 
Dolomites are not for casual hikes.

Re: Mountains, including purple majestic ones

The Tetons are cool because they have no foothills so you can get closer to the big pointy peaks.
The last time I was there it was September and even then it was chilly at night.

Mountains everywhere, north...


south..


and Far East...
