Tipsoo Lake Update
Shen Hao 4x5
135mm Nikkor
Fuji Color Negative Film

This was taken July 8th. The lakes need a bit more time to be ice free. There is quite a bit of ice on the Larger lake.

Yellow Glacier Lillies are just starting to poke out, and I believe Pasque Flowers are emerging also.

Just letting anyone know if they are heading up that way.

Thanks for the update Jim, I'll be up there the first 2 weeks of august, which looks like about when the flowers should be looking good.

Jim,

Appreciate the update.

Incidentally, if you happen to be headed to Rainier in August, as I am planning of spending much of the month there, I hope we get the opportunity to get together again.

Regards, Simon

Jim,
Thanks for the update. I'm going to try to make it up there in the near future. BTW, I also think the image is pretty sweet.

Jim,

Thank you, thank you, thank you.

I'm spending the night out there Friday and will be shooting the upper lake at sunrise on Saturday.
