View is back westward to the eastern flanks of the Sierra Nevada. Please note: This photograph was taken before establishment of the Coso Range Wilderness. Original photograph snapped with a Minolta 35mm camera; this image was created by photographing that original picture with a Nikon CoolPix 995 digital camera. |
