Unidentified Wave Cloud Time Lapse 10-27-09

A time lapse of the movement of a wave type cloud toward the summit, looking toward the West. About 10 minutes before the beginning of this clip, the sun was shining and the cloud formation shown was at least 40 or 50 miles away. Shortly after the end of the clip, the summit went into the fog.
