A Sky Pilot's View
A Sky Pilot's View
Nothing grows higher than a Sky Pilot in the Sierra Nevada. Growing right of the scree slopes of Agassiz staring at the Dusy Basin and off into LeConte Canyon in the distance. The rocks just bounce off these little dense bush like flowers only centimeters tall. Guess you can say I appreciate the smaller things in life.

Sky Pilot's is also a common name for a person leading other's to heaven. Not trying to say I'm taking you there but it's as close as you can get on your own 2 legs in California.

  Thank you guys, I was a mission to show what California's largest glacier looked like from above but since I didn't make it to the top of the mountain I improvised with this view. Finally did make it up there so I'll get around to showing you what it looks like from up there.
