    I think it's what's left of the North Pole. ??

    I can't see the picture, but I'll guess Yellowstone, because that's what the link says. ;)

    LOL @ the N-Pole comment!!

    Terriks- RATS! I never thought to check for "link traces"!

    Actually it's Montana's "Beartooth Pass"! When we got to Billings, MT, we stayed o-nite, then drove to Red-Lodge, MT. Just out of RL, you start the looooonnng/STUNNING climb up to Beartooth-Pass! It actually has TWO highpoints. One is @ ~10,500ft. where that little ski-lift is, and the other/higher summit a few switchbacks later @ 10,950ft.!!

    Pic from almost 11,000 FEET!!!

    WEIRD seeing snow....BENEATH you... in mid-July!!!

    Too easy. I recognized it instantly. Here is my photo from July 20, 2013. Although, I had to pulled this out of my overflow/reject folder (there were better shots I put into my master/sharing folder), I chose it because it looked so much like yours!

    Amazing place, isn't it? Absolutely breathtakingly beautiful.

    Oops. Sorry. That was poorly written. It wasn't as a slam to any photos. I just meant I had some that didn't include my car's mirror, so I used them in the master folder.

    Even stranger is that I also learned a GW member on another forum and I were at Grand Teton NP on the same day during the trip, and we were both hiking near the same lake.
