When you hike up Tanq' Nunst'in (Tanalian Mountain) on a clear day, you're rewarded with the splendor of Lake Clark National Park & Preserve in Alaska. This photo shows a stunning scene of bright blue skies over the shimmering water of Qenlghishi Vena, or Kontrashibuna Lake. Moss campion, the purple wildflower pictured, blankets alpine areas with vibrant charm. Take a rest here and sit with the beauty of the magnificent overlook.
