  • After the Storm
  • Rainbows and Lokets
  • Rainbow starting to appear over the Loket.
  • I was awoken by the sound of thunder this morning and had to run out and cover the theodolite. I saw a lightning strike on a nearby hillside, triggering a small rock-fall. It was kind of neat.
  • I watched as this storm approached from the southeast and cross over the Loket tributary before moving just barely to our west and north where it got stuck on some of the high peaks for about half an hour. Cool rainbow for a lot of the time.
  • Cool rainbow.
  • It started to rain pretty hard, I removed the theodolite from the tripod when a little hail began to fall.
  • It was cool watching the rainbow straddle the medial moraine.
  • Sun first rises above the smaller mountains to our east.
  • Cool glacier flowing into a debris covered glacier on the south side of Mt. McGinnis.
  • A moulin on the south side of the moraine just below our campsite.
  • After the storm passed we could see other big thunderstorms off to the south. Unfortunately this brought an end to our warm weather.
  • Gorgeous day on the moraine! Looking down at one of the large landslides encompassing the entire width of the glacier.
