Mount Washington's snow-covered summit and surrounding peaks glow pink and orange from alpenglow at sunset, with communication towers visible on top and clouds drifting over Mount Monroe, while the foreground valleys remain in deep blue shadow.

Alpenglow on Mount Washington

Alpenglow lights up the west facing slopes of Mount Washington and Mount Monroe during an early February sunset. My favorite part is the summmit of Mount Monroe just peaking above the clouds to catch the sunset light from the west. This is one of my favorite viewpoints in the White Mountains and I can’t wait to get back with more snow on the trees in the foreground.

The Presidential Range glows with warm pink and red alpenglow at sunset, with the rocky peaks rising above dark forested valleys and green foothills under a purple and pink twilight sky.
A winter landscape photograph of New Hampshire's Southern Presidential Range at sunset, featuring deep snow drifts and frost-covered evergreen trees in the foreground, layered snow-covered mountain ridges in the middle ground, and the high peaks bathed in warm alpenglow orange and pink light against a clear blue sky.
A sweeping dusk view of the Southern Presidential Range, with a vast snow-covered alpine foreground dotted with small frost-covered conifers giving way to forested slopes bathed in warm golden light, and Mount Washington's snow-capped summit rising prominently against a clear pale blue sky in the distance, with Mounts Pierce, Eisenhower, and Monroe also visible along the ridge.
