This is a cirque. The definition of a cirque is: An amphitheater like valley formed by glacial erosion, over many thousands of years. The word cirque is a French word, derived from the Latin word circus. This cirque, or the name of this hike is “Ptarmigan cirque”. Why is it called Ptarmigan you ask? It would have to be based on the kinds of birds found in the area. That being said, I didn’t see any birds around at all. Maybe they are more prevalent during the Summertime. No idea really. Does it even matter? No, not in the least! Hope your having good weekend, and preparing for the eclipse on Monday.
