Mount Jackson, New Hampshire.

There are moments in the mountains that feel almost otherworldly, and this was certainly one of them.

It was still early in the winter season, and conditions at lower elevations were relatively unremarkable. But as I climbed higher toward the alpine, the landscape transformed into something straight out of a fairytale. Snow-laden evergreens stretched across the mountainside, while the final rays of evening sunlight cast a beautiful peach and golden glow across the frozen landscape.

The contrast between the warm evening light and the cool, blue tones of the winter wilderness created a scene that felt almost like stepping into Narnia. Quiet, surreal, and impossibly beautiful. It was one of those fleeting mountain moments that stays with you long after the hike is over.
