Thanks for the comments, guys. Gives me incentive to keep going.
Shel, the shot was on Fuji S-400. So I thought I could wring out more detail in the clouds. Started again from scratch, with two scans, one exposed for the sky, one for the land.
Separate curve adjustments for each. Next, I think I'll see if I can bring out more detail in the cloud shadows on the trees. Could spend days doing this, it is very enjoyable.

Man, that was a cold afternoon. On the other hand, the oxygen deprivation up there makes you slow down and take your time getting the shot.
