I had enjoyed your first larch-pics before and am enjoying these just as much. Wonderful hike, by the look of things!
And the sky was just brilliant, all blue, so well offering itself as perfect backdrop for the yellow trees!
But the last one fascinates me, too, with that blue-purple-redish-pink-orange-yellow stripe in the sky!

They are very real captures. The sunset in the last one looks so enticing. You camped at the mountain top? Are you in Canada? Beautiful landscape and beautiful nature..

Thanks, LaFoto. I was lucky to be blessed with good weather for 2 days right at the peak of the larches' color.

No, my camp is halfway up the mountain just below the larch grove. After the last picture I had to hiked back in the dark using a headlamp. And yeah I'm living in the Great White North, Vancouver, BC to be exact. Frosty Mountain is located in Manning Provincial Park about 2.5 hours' drive from Vancouver.

It was very windy up there, many trees were tilting to one side.

thanks again everyone

Nice series. I love larch trees because they hold their yellow color long after the deciduous trees loose their colorful leaves. I was in Jasper this weekend and it looked quite similar to what we see here...although I didn't climb any mountains to get the great vistas like you did.
