I'm a terrible photographer, and I was pretty disappointed that I couldn't do this one justice. It was much more fantastic than what was captured.

EDIT: just realized this may not be the best spot for this post since not the exact same cloud formation you guys are discussing. My bad.

Here is a shot of that same section of the Glacier Divide in August 2009, Not nearly as striking as Maverick's photograph but you can see the difference in snow

Cool cloud Eric! Brian that shot sure has more snow, probably had even more last year.
