Observation Point looking DOWN on Angels Landing

It is the mountain in front in the picture

It is hazy looking because it is SNOWING!!!

Observation Point.  The lowest spot of Angels Landing

on the right of the picture is where the first pictures of Scouts Rest

were taken.  The hike started at the river below.  Approx 2500 vertical feet

in 4 miles.  8 miles round trip.  It was worth it.!!!
