Bonjour Eric,
Assez étonnant de voir ce désert canadien. L'image est magnifique réunissant désert et neiges éternelles. Quel contraste! cela me dirait assez de me promener dans ce paysage. Un grand merci de nous le faire connaître.

Hello Eric

A wonderful view of this little known desert.
The lighting and colours are super.
Excellent pov and composition with the mountains in the BG.
I am glad you posted this unique place.

I've been through Carcross several times and never saw this! Do you live near there? It seemed like a very small town. I remember there was a neat old paddle wheeler there once. It, sadly, has since burned. I like the deep depth of focus in your sharp, well saturated photo.

Hello Eric,
Nicely done, what a vista and a great content as well; snow capped mountains, a mini dessert, vegetation, blue sky with beautiful clouds...
Well done
