Happy Autumn Equinox! Scenes like this make it easier to accept the fact that summer is officially behind us. Taken two days ago on the Crow Pass Trail, descending from the pass to Eagle River. In the background is Eagle Glacier, the source of Eagle River.

Happy Summer Solstice! With 19 hours, 21 minutes, and 18 seconds of daylight in south central Alaska today, the pendulum of light now swings the other direction until December 21, at which time we will have approximately 5 and a half hours of daylight.
This is Glacier Lake, the headwaters of Eagle River. I took this one year ago today on the Crow Pass Trail using the "Big Stopper" 10-stop neutral density filter from LEE Filters to obtain a 60-second exposure.
A telephoto view of Eagle Glacier from Glacier Lake, the headwaters of Eagle River. Next time I hike the Crow Pass Trail, I plan to camp at the lake and hike up to the glacier.
