Descending Upon Crandell Lake

The hike started with some easy elevation gain, typical for most any hike. Followed by elevation loss, which is not as typical, but not rare either. The loss was about half the gain, give or take. As I descended, the lake became more visible. Here are the first couple of photos of Crandell Lake, located inside Waterton Lakes Park. First thing that caught my attention was the nearly turquoise coloured water. Super beautiful to gaze at! Felt like jumping in for a swim, but I didn’t. Maybe I should have? I always imagine going for a swim in these kinds of situations, but never act upon it. Thanks for stopping by.

STOPToo many crystal clear l lakes at waterloon lake park. You should have tried a swim, but should be aware of the depth too. Happy day to you.
Depth is not an issue really, the danger is in the wildlife!
Oh yes... that is very much true
Wow, the lake is absolutely stunning! 🌊 Just looking at it feels so healing and peaceful. Thank you for sharing this beautiful view
A gem of a lake nestled in the valley. It was great.
Enjoyable that there were no humans around, a clear picture of the lake without intruders!
Yes! I love it when there are few or no humans around.
What a gorgeous lake, I like those turquoise waters that come from the melting glaciers! I bet they are pretty chilly though, it would keep me from jumping in that much for sure! What a beautiful decent down to the lake though, that was a great choice for that hike!
You even caught a great honed sheep there as well, I love finding wildlife. As long as they aren't bears, cougars, or wolves looking to cause you problems.
Awesome shots as always, gorgeous lake!

Love finding the “right kind” of wildlife! Others, not so much (unless there is a decent buffer between us..). Thanks for stopping by.
