Three Majestic Beauties (March 25, 2012)

Mount Redoubt (last eruption, 2009)

Mount Spur (last eruption, 1992)

Mount Illiamna (inactive volcano)


What a gorgeous day on the Cook Inlet. The range was as clear as can be and the ocean calm. The tide was out in the morning, allowing for some good walking on the beach. Mount Redoubt, Illiamna, and Spur were stunning. If only pictures could do them justice.
