On A Beautiful Sunny Day =>
…This GSV Shows Exactly What Is Beyond The ZMM Narrator’s
……. “ Then The Tunnel Opens Onto Dark Sky Again, And When We Emerge … .“
..****************..
….Such Scenery Metaphorically Helps The ZMM Narrator To Finish His Poetic Preparation for =>
….His Physical Landscape ”High Country” AND His ”High Country Of The Mind.”
..****************..
….NOTE1: Just Above The Word “Google” At The Bottom Of /\ Above /\ Photo, You See A Strip Of Grey. This Is The Highway, One Tier Down.
….NOTE2: Please Remember (As Is Shown Above) That The Narrator’s “ … almost a tunnel of snow. “ Is located TWO Switchbacks Up On “The Hogback”: This means that this “Almost A Tunnel of Snow” Is On The Third Tier Up:
….NOTE3: To better understand “The Hogback”, you may have to go back 14-to 16 photos to study Previously Much Discussed => a) Aerial Photo, b) Satellite View, and c) Topographical Map.

….[ “ Then the tunnel opens onto dark sky again and when we emerge we see we’re at the summit.
….Beyond is another country. Mountain lakes and pines and snowfields are below.
…… Above and beyond them as far as we can see are farther mountain ranges covered with snow. The high country.“ ]
Looking Beyond The Narrator’s “Twin Walls of Snow” , ZMM Route, Second Major Snowfields, Beartooth Highway, WY. In the /\ Above /\ GSV Photo (Altitude 10,589 ft), an example of the Narrator’s “Dark Shadows” are seen in the “Medium Dark Cloud Shadows” at lower right. AND an example of the Narrator’s “Dark Sky” is seen as the “Darker Blue-Black Sky at Top Of Photo, to right of center,
…. EXPLANATION: To see better see this “Darker Blue-Black Sky” (Top Right of /\ Above / \Photo) is indeed a Darker Blue, trending towards a Darker “Blue-Black”, please watch the darkest blue area, and move your head up & down, as you view your computer screen, at top right. .
..****************..
.... In Earlier Photo Captions, We Have Reviewed The Narrator’s Accuracy Of Grass & Flowers, Alternating With Ever Deepening Snow.
….This Is Double Emphasis Of What Is Seen In The Physical Landscape =>
……AND this is the Narrator's "poetic preparation" for us to understand his upcoming Philosophy Chautauquas: These Chautauquas, The Narrator calls the "High Country of the Mind"!.
..****************..
To Totally Remember The Narrator’s “Poetic Preparation” And Fixate Into Your Understanding =>
….Let's Summarize His Three Italic Statements, Which Are Master Motifs As Fully Discussed In Previous Photos:
..1) Before the "Tunnel".=> We have the alternating contrasts of: “Dark sky now and cold. ”
..2) In the "tunnel". => We leave the hum drum confined world of ~ordinary daily life: We move through twin walls, almost a tunnel of snow.
3) After the "Tunnel".=> We emerge clean and pure into the high rarefied world created by human imagination (“High Country of the Mind ”) where: .... the tunnel opens onto dark sky again. .which is (as best possible), illustrated in the /\ Above /\ Photo.
…. Good to have this, because all my own photos completely fail to show the ZMM Narrator’s “ High Country ” with “ Dark Blue Sky”, “Bright Sun” and “Dark Shadows. ”
..****************..
Of Course, The ZMM Narrator’s “ Dark Sky Again“ Means Darker Black-Blue Sky That Is Trending To Black Sky … Almost No Sky At All.
….This Very Thin, High Altitude Air, With Greatly Reduced Moisture, Lets In The Searing Search Light Illumination Of The Brilliant Sun That Allows Us To Examine Closely (& Philosophically) Everything.
….Bright areas vividly contrast with really dark shadows. This is a trend toward the extreme, black sky, and black shadows in photos taken in outer space
