Dream Lake
After Nymph Lake, I hiked onwards and upwards to Dream Lake. This is one of the most scenic sections of trail due to the expansive views that are available along the way. And, certain spots are easier to access in winter due to everything being covered with snow!
After taking in the views along the way and reaching Dream Lake, it became very windy! The lake typically is very windy but today it was extreme. It was a rather painful at times to face into the wind as my face got pelted with little bits of frozen snow. I managed to get a shot of the snow flying towards me at high speed!
When I was last here back in November, the lake was already covered with ice and snow. At the time, large portions were covered with ice that reflected light like a mirror. Today, it was mostly covered with snow with some small portions with visible ice and a very small section covered with that super reflective black ice.
