Then I was standing on the highest mountain of them all, and round about me was the whole hoop of the world. And while I stood there I saw more than I can tell and I understood more than I saw...

I bivoucked at this spot on Mount Moran to catch the evening and morning colors in pastel. Drizzlepuss was named on the first climb by Paul Petzoldt, and 3 climbers from the Colorado Mountain Club (CMC) in 1935. It had been raining when they reached this spot, hence the name they christened the spire. Only a small spur of the "Drizz" is visible in the foreground as you look south to the Grand and other peaks, with the Jackson Hole to the left.
