I took these photos Saturday night (2/4/23). I got lucky with the weather, the clouds were covering the Chugach all day, but parted at sunset. I took this on the frozen Eagle River, between the Yukla Yurt and the Echo Bend area of the Crow Pass trail. From this view, you can see nearly 7,000 feet of rise on the NW face of the peak. This is almost double the rise of in elevation you see on El Capitan from the Yosemite Valley floor. I climbed this one back in May of 2021 (from the much more moderate East/North East aspects).

Photo details: this is a panoramic of a few vertical shots stitched together. Why? Because I only had a telephoto with me and the composition at 100mm was too tight for my liking.

Camera and settings:

Sony A7RV

Sony 100-400mm lens

100mm, f/7.1, ISO 100, 1 second

Two things - first the sky was tracked with a benro Polaris, that's why I don't have star trails.

Second - this is one of the darkest places on earth. No light pollution for hundreds of miles. I'm also at an altitude of around 4000 meters so there's little atmosphere to shoot through, and the atmosphere is bone dry. This is why some of the world's largest observatories are in this region.
