11 October 2021~brocken Spectre Aka Mountain Spectre~your Shadow At The Centre Of The Aura Aka Glory

While hiking in Olympic National Park a couple days ago
I experienced something I had never heard of.

It’s called a Brocken Spectre or Mountain Spectre.

It’s my shadow in the center of the Aura or “Glory”.

It was probably the coolest thing
I’ve ever experienced in all of my mountain days
and I certainly felt very lucky.

Here is a link to the short video
I made that gives a better idea of the juxtaposition.
