Jon Labass and I decided to head up to Lake Isabelle in Indian Peaks Wilderness(Colorado) early Saturday Morning. We hit the trail at 4AM and didn't arrive to the lake until 5:20ish. The countless snow drifts made the trek longer than normal. The lake is still about 30% Ice covered(West side) and I must say that there is tons of snow on the trail. Many areas had 5+ft of snow and it will be awhile before it all melts off. A few flowers are starting to come to life but the peak is still weeks away. I havent had a chance to go through all the images but here are a few.

Wow, these are great. The reflections in the first one are delightful. Looking forward to getting up there, but might wait for a little more snow melt on the trail.
Nice Pics, Michael! That hint of fog is especilly cool. Yep, looks like a late meltout this year, fine with me since itll be Aug before im really able to get out there.

These are fantastic, Michael! That fog appearing is trippy. Excellent collection!
Awesome shots! #1 is insane!!! There might by a slight CW tilt on that one, but anyways what an incredible reflection. The patterns of the snow are great too.
