Panoramic images from Caribou Lake backpack

A few weekends ago I went backpacking to Caribou Lakes in the Trinities with my friend Brandon Hemenway.  I’m finally getting around to stitching together a few panoramic shots.

Caribou Lake is at  41° 1′12.54″N, 122°58′31.48″W.

Here’s a panoramic image (this is at least 6 stitched-together images) of the view of Caribou Lake and Caribou Mountain from the pass to the south.  Click the image for a larger view.

In Google Earth, you can see Caribou Lake from behind the pass this photo was taken from.  Also, my panoram will show up as a spot you can click on in Google Earth pretty soon.

My attempt at a panoram looking the other way off of the pass, towards Emerald and Saphire Lakes, was less successful, because the light was different in all directions and I didn’t figure out how to lock in manual camera settings.  Also, I missed a few spots!

But, here’s the view from Google Earth.

More to come!  Also, look forward to Burning Man photos.

    Great photo of Caribou. I have not made it to that lake yet, but one day I shall. So many Trinity Alps lakes, so little time.
