Seeing the Universe Above the Forest

We went to scope out a dark skies location between Baggs and Encampment Wyoming and came away happily impressed with the low light pollution we found in the Sierra Madre Mountains. Cloud cover moved in not long after this take on the Milky Way and brought my session to a premature close, so I will have to go back for more night photography in this promising location!
