Dust Storm viewed from the top of Camelback Mountain, 8/13/03, sunset


The sky was cloudy, but just before sunset, the sun shown through. Squaw Peak to the left.

 


Another view, looking northwest from the peak.

 


Before the sun came out, a dust storm started heading toward us from the southeast.

 


The sun is out now, and the shadow of Camelback Mtn. creeps onto the wall of dust.

 


The shadow on the wall of dust looks like a pyramid.

 


The dust and wind are just about to hit us. There were only a few drops of rain behind this.
