22. Perfect! The Mountain is always great - when visible - from that particular area.

I love how the Mountain makes her own weather! Blue_in_AK, thanks for this wonderful shot.

Cute story: There was a (tongue-in-cheek) letter to the editor, I think in the New-Miner, by a tourist from Missouri, who swore the Mountain was just a publicity stunt, because he'd been up to visit 20 times and had never been able to see it.............

I remember the Mountain in 1971 on the raft race from Fairbanks to Nenana - waking up on the south shore of the river in Nenana and the Mountain was PINK!! LOL! - quite a sight for a 16 year old!
