There's a spot where I walk my dog near my house. It follows a power line trail up a hill, and you can turn around and see Denali. For whatever reason, on warm spring days Fata Morgana distortion is fairly common from this spot. I've seen it a few times. At it's most obvious, Denali will appear to be sitting on a pedestal of sheer cliffs, thousands of feet high, surrounded by non existent tabletop mountains and improbable, fantastically shaped spires that would be 10,000 feet ASL if they were real. My cellphone camera doesn't do it justice to though.

- mordechai9000 6y agoNo, I just tried posting to imgur and it didn't go so well. It is a white mountain on the horizon, taken with a cell phone. Honestly the pictures don't convey much. If you zoom in, you can see the distortion, though. I'm sure a decent lens could capture it.
