| Wasatch Mountains, Utah. This time-exposure image was lit entirely by the light of the full moon at midnight from a high ridge in the Wasatch Mountains overlooking Little Cottonwood Canyon. The lights of Snowbird Village are immediately below as the lights of the Salt Lake Valley glow in the distance. Evidenced by its "U" shape, a large glacier carved this canyon during the late Pleistocene epoch. As the glacier flowed into the Salt Lake Valley eight miles downcanyon, it calved icebergs into the waters of Lake Bonneville which filled the valley to a depth of 1,000 feet.
