This is an image I took while camping out on the Zapata Ranch will visiting with my friend; Duke Phillips ~ The Flying Cowboy. He uses his bush plane to help manage and track the cattle, horses bison and elk that live on the Zapata Ranch.
My aircraft is on the left and his on the right. Behind the 2 bush planes lays Blanca Peak on the right, Twin Peaks in the middle and California Peak on the left.
Blanca Peak is the fourth highest summit of the Rocky Mountains of North America and the U.S. state of Colorado. The ultra-prominent 14,351-foot (4,374 m) peak is the highest summit of the Sierra Blanca Massif, the Sangre de Cristo Range, and the Sangre de Cristo Mountains. (Research Source)
Blanca Peak is known to the First Nations Navajo people as the Sacred Mountain of the East: Sisnaajiní (or Tsisnaasjiní), the Dawn or White Shell Mountain.
The mountain is considered to be the eastern boundary of the Dinetah, the traditional Navajo homeland.
It is associated with the color white, and is said to be covered in daylight and dawn and fastened to the ground with lightning. It is gendered male. (Research Source)
There is a polar bear looking down on Dukes bush plane from the mountains behind him...can you see it?
This image is from my ongoing project in which I am trying to raise awareness of the 47% of the USA and 90% of Canada that remain unpopulated wilderness.
Where Eagles Fly - The American Wilderness Expedition is my personal mission to introduce people to these amazing locations that surround us.
