Looking across the flower strewn valley near Simpson Pass with The Monarch rising into the mildly smoky blue sky in the distance.
Looking back into the meadow from near the top of Healy Pass. Glacier lilies dot the lamdscape while The Monarch (right) and the various mountains nearby Mt Jimmie Simpson hang on to the last of their snow.
A thin snowpatch remains at the top of Healy pass as you look towards the Monarch with an unnamed seasonal pond in the bowl below.
Looking back from the top of Healy Pass towards Mt Jimmy Simpson. Various small ponds may be seen in the valley with the trees below. Haze from smoke crept in from the east.
