Summit Meadow, formerly a nexus of Yosemite's nordic activity, lies buried in six feet of fresh snow. A young intercedent clings to meadow's edge while a lone backlit pioneer takes center stage before a glowering forest backdrop. Fir branches heavy with backlit clumps of snow make for a compelling study in monochrome tonal variation and micro–contrast. Maintaining the lively nature of the freshly fallen crystalline sugar snow blanketing the meadow became the foremost photographic challenge. Cross–country skiing, here to Glacier Point, provided me with the means to explore the park's wintry backcountry mantle.
