Deadman lake looking from the west. Mt Utterman, with an elevation of a little over 12000 feet is on the skyline. A pile of rocks in the foreground marks the trail that leads up the ridge to the west of Deadman lake. The approaching clouds turned into a thunderstorm with lightning and hail. I holed up and built a fire in the Spruce trees just under timberline to wait out the storm. Lightning can be rather spectacular around timberline.
