A rocky summit view in north Idaho, with a snowy burned ridge and a green valley

A photo story

A summit in north Idaho

Standing on a pile of broken rock at the top of a north Idaho peak in May 2023. The ridge next door was still buried in snow with burned snags poking through it, and the valley floor way down below had already turned green. I don't have a solid name for this peak, so I'll leave it at north Idaho.

Spring was happening at two speeds up there, snow on the ridge and green in the valley. I stood on the broken rock and took the photo.
