Deer Mountain
If my map skills are correct, this is Deer Mountain above the Frying Pan Lakes. The stream is the headwaters of the Frying Pan River. I spent a couple of days backpacking in the area and a fair amount of time hiding in the tent from hail, bugs, and lightning. But also a few good times with decent light.

saWEET! There's more lingering snow in this shot than down here in the San Juans.

Thank you Rajeev. Here is another. Like you mentioned, the layout of the place did have some exposure challenges and I might have to PS a bit more with this one. This was taken below one of the lakes and perhaps at least gives a little more feel for the place. It was a little too windy for the lake reflection I'd hoped for.

And one of the Frying Pan by itself.

Nice shots, Roger!
I especially like the last one of the stream.
