The Nokhu Crags Guarding Lake Agnes (PL)

Standing at 12,490 feet this rock formation is the highest point of the Never Summer Mountains range of the Rocky Mountains of North America. The name is based on the Arapaho language, Neaha-no-xhu, meaning "Eagles Nest."
The peak is located in State Forest State Park, 2.5 miles south of Cameron Pass in Jackson County, Colorado, United States. The summit lies just northwest of the Continental Divide and Rocky Mountain National Park, near the headwaters of the Michigan River. The peak is prominently visible from State Highway 14 and can be seen throughout the southern North Park basin where it is known also known as "the Crags" or "Sleeping Indian" for its resemblance to the form of a supine chief.

Outstanding. Proves that you can effectively shoot Panoramas hand held.

In order for me to hike to high mountain lakes I have to lighten my load, so I typically carry my 80D, an 18-250 zoom, a 10-18 zoom, and the typical necessary hiking supplies, like water, small snacks, and other appropriate gear. I prefer to use a tripod, but the weight is just too much for me. This particular day I was without my 10-18 zoom.
It's a fairly easy hike to this lake, but it is straight up, so it is a bit strenuous.
Thanks for commenting!

I am sure you've run into the pretzel move when doing panos hand held. I twist over to the left, and shoot the images left to right. By the time I get to the right hand side, I am twisted into a semi corkscrew position.

I hadn't thought about it, but I do see your point.
