In a Frozen Fairytale
by Floris van Breugel
Last week Marc and I snowshoe-backpacked up to the summit of Drake Peak in SE Oregon's Warner Range to await a clearing storm. We camped in the most idyllic mountaintop campsite imaginable, just feet away from the summit, in Oregon's highest mountaintop forest at 8,500 feet. The trees were caked in rime ice; it was like living in a frozen fairytale.
For the photo Marc lit up the tent from the inside with his headlamp during that last minutes of foggy light.
