Went out hoping that I might be able to get a glimpse of a few meteors from the Geminid Meteor shower. Was hoping that there would be enough breaks in the clouds to actually see the sky. Well that didn't work out like I had hoped. So I went with plan B. I decided to drive down to Girdwood, AK because I knew that the lights of Alyeska Ski Resort would be on since tomorrow is opening day. Interesting fact. Alyeska Ski Resort is the only ski resort in the world that is located at sea level.
Just missed catching the sun before it dipped behind the mountain. Sometimes you catch them. Sometimes you don't.
An unexpected surprise as I was hiking around Portage Lake. As the sun finally started to rise the high clouds reflected a large shimmering sun halo.
