Panoramic view of another high valley.

Final climb up a steep path to the pass.

Vast view on to top of the path. Big mountain range in the background.

Cowboy camping after a refreshing dip in the nearby lake.

With clear skies all day, I knew condensation wouldn't be an issue. #CowboyCamping ✨ Watched swallows soaring through the sky and valley. The starry night was breathtaking - no light pollution for miles. I could even see the Milky Way in all its glory. Nights like these make everything worth it 🌠
