A high-angle panoramic view of the Black Canyon of the Gunnison National Park. The deep, narrow canyon is dominated by steep, dark grey and black rock walls, with dramatic vertical drops and sharp pinnacles. Patches of green trees and shrubs cling to the less sheer slopes and along the canyon rim. A winding river, barely visible at the very bottom, cuts through the canyon. The sky above is bright with some faint clouds, and more distant mountains are visible in the background, appearing hazy.

Sunny morning to the Black Canyon of the Gunnison.
