41.24: Utah, near Salt Lake City: Lake Blanche


A hike up to another of Salt Lake City's numerous alpine lakes. Most seem to 'float' at about 9,000 feet, usually with hiking elevation gains of 2,000 to 3,000 feet, this one being over 2,700 feet. Some of the track is testing but the destination point is rewarding. This hike and endpoint, includes two other lakes, Florence and Lillian, both adding to pleasure. The whole experience, complemented by the surrounding mountains, the deep valley and the different rock formations proved superb.



The tranquility reflects off the water.





Did some painting in our spare moments.











Contrasting formations







Cheers,
