Mount Evans - Vanilla Icing

I love how this wall of snow looks like Vanilla Icing. 

North America's highest auto road (14,260 ft or 4,346.5m). A view of the road to the summit of Mount Evans, near Denver Colorado. Yes, it is every bit as scary as it looks. One wrong move and you could be taking a short cut to the bottom. This photo was taken shortly after the road opened for the season, in early June of 2008. The road is open when weather is cooperative from the end of May through October. Truly one of the most exciting and breath taking drives of my life! I've got to do this again!
