You can barely see the Tetons due to the smoke

Thank you for contributing to the group, Blue Octopus.

I visited here long ago and remember well the Grand Tetons majestically outlined against the blue sky. Here they are barely visible and I can't even recognize, in this veiled, greysh sky, the bold, clear skies of the Rocky Mountains region.

Your title briefly hints at how this relates to climate change, but if you could add a brief text about where the smoke comes from and what you experienced, it would help us appreciate the full impact of what we are seeing here.

I guess there were fires somewhere in Idaho. I was disconnected from the grid when I took the photo, so I am not sure which fire, how long it burned, etc.

The increase of wildfires in the west is due to climate change.
