We were charmed to learn that our friends at Backpacker's Basecamp have chosen to use one of our photos for their header for the next couple of weeks. This is a rotating system in which they choose a different photo every once in a while to illustrate their community message boards. We like that community a lot: it has a nice blend of real expertise with people who are genuinely pleasant and polite to each other.

So we recommend that you check it out: http://bpbasecamp.freeforums.net/board/1/trailhead-register

And you might note that attractive photo in the upper right of the page: Leopold Lake in the Emigrant Wilderness at sunset, during the first few days of the Portal Fire in July of 2014...which added to the dramatic lighting of the photo.
