The Misty Mountains Cold

Our day in the Olympics was misty and cool for the most part, though we had some sunshine at intervals. This picture was taken near the Hurricane Ridge vistor's center and looks west across the valley to some of the higher peaks which are barely visible in the photo.

The title is, of course, taken from a song in J.R.R. Tolkien's, The Hobbit.
"Far over the misty mountains cold,
To dungeons deep and caverns old,
We will away, ere break of day,
To seek our pale, enchanted gold."
