This is the view across the Chilkat River, just before entering the town of Haines, Alaska. Once again, unsettled weather enhanced the photographic appeal of the scene, though such conditions are quite typical of the coastal mountains. It was a gift that the layers and wisps of cloud worked into this composition as they did, but the alpine scenery was largely obscured for much of the rest of our visit to the area.
