Day...Late! Part B of Day 285: Yep, I meant to post this last night with the other two photos from my hike yesterday. This, of course, is Snow Lake, my destination and turn-around point. It's nestled in a bowl (cirque) beneath Unicorn Peak, and the water is as clear as glass. As with most alpine lakes, the water remains quite cold throughout the year. As you can see, patches of snow still linger along the shoreline. A few brave backpackers enjoy swimming here or in lower Bench Lake, but it is not a sport for the faint of heart.
