The Cloisters, just to the south, were bathed in orange light: a sort of commuter's alpenglow. |
Ride the gondola to a log lodge on the top of Winter Park Mountain and watch the alpenglow wash over the granite tops of the Indian Peaks, turning the clouds orange and pink. |
There were fleeting blushes as rosy as the alpenglow now tinging her pale cheek. |
Nearing dusk, we put on skins and climbed back up to the lodge, whose beaconing lights looked like a Christmas card with alpenglow highlighting the surrounding mountains. |
Sinking behind nearby Mount St. Helens, the sun ignited Mount Hood in fiery red alpenglow. |
When those glossy domes swim into the alpenglow, wet after rain, you conceive how long and imperturbable are the purposes of God. |
