Views from Washburn Point

I spent my morning near Tioga Pass photographing Mammoth Peak. For the evening I drove up to Washburn Point in hopes to capture the rising moon over Red Peak and anything else I might capture. Thankfully the clouds cooperated that afternoon and I took several pictures of the rising moon over Washburn Point and other interesting scenes. The last image was taken on the way home from Washburn Point. Loved the colors so I found a spot to pull over and take a photo.
