Mount Shuksan By Moonlight, North Cascades
The nearly full moon shines over Mount Shuksan, a 9,131 foot (2,783 meter) mountain in Washington's North Cascades, which is reflected in Picture Lake. Shown here at about midnight, Mount Shuksan was formed about 120 million years ago when two of Earth's plates collided and were thrust upward in an event known as the Easton collision.
