Juneau, Alaska #3387

Feb 11, 2021

Juneau, Alaska, is spread out along the ocean’s edge. Driving the morning commute to downtown or Douglas on the Egan Highway from out the road or the valley is a scenic joy ride. Juneauites have been lucky to be experiencing cold, clear weather for the last two weeks. The night before I took this image it had snowed a pile. I woke to clear skies and immediately headed to Douglas to hike up the ridge behind the town to get this view before the strong outflow winds, called the Taku winds, blew all the snow out of the trees. Enjoy and thank you for visiting and be well. Camera: #Nikon #D800, Lens: # Nikkor 24-70mm, Digital Capture, Tripod, ©Mark Kelley
