This particular view is only available at a certain time of day. I am not exactly sure why but I would imagine it has something to do with the angle of the sun. The larger mountain can only be seen at sunset and and the smaller mountain in front of it is a volcano. The volcano is about 40 miles from where I took this and the larger about 70. I was on the west face of the Sandia’s looking west.
