As I wandered through the picturesque mountain range, I was struck by the breathtaking beauty of the Wheeler Peak. Its majestic height of 13,159 feet and the surrounding landscape filled me with awe and wonder. The snow-capped peak gives rise to the Wheeler Peak Wilderness area, which holds a diverse range of flora and fauna. I observed mountain lions, black bears, bighorn sheep, elk, and marmots. At higher elevations, I saw rare alpine flowers. The tops of the highest peaks hosted cold temperatures and freezing winds despite the sunshine. Research reveals that this mountain was once a glacial plateau which caused the strange pattern on rocks. The natural beauty of Wheeler Peak made it easily one of my favorite places on Earth.
