Blue Lake

This was our destination last Friday, November 7th. We hiked the Blue Lake trail to its end at the laker, which truly was blue when we were there. The picture was taken at 1:41 pm but already the light was fading and the shadows were turning blue. Blue Lake lies at the back of the Liberty Bell Group of peaks, the peaks shown in the previous photo. We had our lunch there, a freeze-dried meal, ramen noodles and coffee before hiking back out. The hot food and coffee were very welcome since it was getting colder with the fading light and our feet were a bit wet and cold from the snow (need to waterproof the boots once again).
