With frozen digits and cold weather causing a malfunction in the camera’s auto-focus system, this photo of Colin “Bubba” Ahearn was captured in the Crazy Mountains above the Cottonwood Lake drainage. The adventure was dubbed “best day of the year” as it involved a 10-mile snowmobile approach, scrambling up rock and snow, skiing down rock and snow, stunning views of the jagged interior Crazies, and cold beer at the truck.
