It took me a looooong time to see the bear. I grew up in Switzerland and I was in my late 20s when I noticed it....

Yeah, the Matterhorn acts almost like a giant cloud catcher.

Wasn't it just insane!? One of the best sunsets I've ever seen in the alps. Tonight might be good too - high clouds!

Good point. I titled this based on the location where the image was shot - the Riffelalp, which is in the town of Zermatt. I'm Swiss, so the first thing I thought of was "I'm in Zermatt, I'll put that in the title" But yeah, Matterhorn would have been more accurate.

I'm currently on a ski trip in Zermatt and this was last night's sunset. There were high clouds behind the Matterhorn, but the horizon was clear. The result was a spectacular light show, with the mountain casting a dramatic shadow. The clouds were moving fast, so this halo only lasted for a few seconds.
