Mount Sefton is a 3157 m mountain peak above Aoraki/Mount Cook Village. According to Maori legend, it is the guardian of Aoraki. The lake below the mountain is known as Mueller Glacier Lake.
This image was taken from the ridge of Mt Cook Range just after the sun went down behind the mountain peak. The foreground vegetation could only be seen around the snowline.
