Wow! Another stunning photo. I’m quite sure if we lived there, we would never get any work done!

Thanks Jo! Sometimes that is an issue all right!

Nice name for a lake. Either it is quite high in elevation or the clouds were really low that day.

The clouds were low. It is only about 4000 feet.

So lovely – is the water level down, or is the exposed shoreline rock “just the way it is”? (Here – I’ll let you laugh at me. When I first looked at the photo, I thought, “The tide must be out.” Uh – not so much. Isn’t it funny how our place in the world can shape our view of other places?

That’s just the natural shoreline of the lake. Its level does vary a little with the seasons, but not all that much. It formed in a very cliffy/rocky area not far below the mountain ridge through there and there is very little actual dirt around to fill in the low places.

I’d LOVE to go trout fishing there (assuming there are trout). Beautiful photo.

Yes, there are trout in it, none very large though. It gets a little fishing activity in summer and perhaps a little more in winter when it is completely frozen over.

I used to like to stop here… Never did camp (Lion’s club?). Such a pretty little lake. Beautiful photo.

I don’t know if the campground is used much. I never see anyone there, but I suppose in the summer fishermen use it.

You can get to this one in winter when you can’t get to the high ones.

Those types are good for a fresh infusion of outdoors in the deep of winter when we can’t make it to the other ones…I have several trails like that around here, too….

Yes, it is in a pretty setting and not used heavily as most approachable lakes are.

That day’s weather created some interesting photo opportunities when the low clouds opened a little right overhead. Unexpected, but welcome.

I’ve just thought of another name for Rainbow Lake – Lake Tranquility. Beautiful!

It used to be called “Dog Lake” and I actually preferred that. Never figured out why they changed it.

Way back when, my Dad used to take pictures and he had quite a few that he thought would make good postcards. That was back when 5 cent postcards were popular.

I pay a brief visit to the lake every winter. I wish I could get into some of the very remote ones though!
