A beautiful late summer day in Montana's mountains. Smoke from Idaho fires started to settle in as day progressed, limiting views of neighboring ranges. Glacial evidence on the landscape from the flanks and top of this peak are amazing. Nice to summit here again after 14 years absence, this time by the southern route (northern route used previously).
