Really a nice picture!

I see a faint yellowish fringe around the west lake shore. Algae bloom or are they intentionally staining the water to determine dissident outflow. I have noticed upland water resurgences in subalpine places where very little catchment basin is upstream. Good pic, 10/10

Re: Really a nice picture!

From here it does look like an algae bloom but it is actually "grass". See this pic in my photos taken from over there.

Wow, who would have thought! The mountains seem to always throw us curve balls, don't they?
