Morning View

On a whim I took a hike into this area that is much less photographed as it doesn't have many tufa formations. I happened across these melt-outs from the previous storm that I thought looked interesting so I gave it a try.

 

[Ben Egbert]

Cool in more ways than one.

Interesting scene - are the small inlets from fresh water draining into the lake from snow melt?

 

[Mike Lewis]

Really like this capture - looks like getting into a new area paid off for sure!

I think they are from springs at the base of the Sierra. Not a whole lot of run-off at the moment.

Thanks, Mike. It's a nice area and not many people even on the weekends.

Beautiful!

 

[Jameel Hyder]

Nice take on this area. The snow patterns are a nice anchor here

 

[Kurt Harrigan]

Thanks, Jameel.

Wow, love this area Kurt! Those cut out areas in the snow are super compelling. Great job on getting out there to find this.

 

[Jim Dockery]

Nice work.
