Snowmaking Sunrise on Cannon Mountain

I took this photo while descending the Old Bridle Path from Greenleaf Hut. There’s a section of trail that traverses a ridgeline that curls back towards Franconia Notch and gives beautiful views of Franconia Ridge to the left and Cannon Mountain and the Kinsman Range to the right. This particular morning, the sun was rising and the alpenglow was lighting up the summit of Cannon Mountain, the tram station and second tram tower, and the huge snowmaking cloud blowing up and over the summit of the ski area.
