To the best of my knowledge, the first lake of the “Valley of the Five Lakes” is actually named “First Lake”. Strange huh? So what ended up happening on this hike was that after we arrived here, we missed a right turn on the trail. I wish I would have had the “AllTrails” app on my phone. That being said, with the Huawei phone, the google play store is not available. (The trade offs one makes for a killer camera I guess) So we just actually ended up walking around the First Lake only. We did run into other hikers on the trail, but I believe the info we were given threw us for a loop, so to speak. Oh well. Scenery was pretty decent nonetheless.

By the way, in case you haven’t heard, there is a new community called “Colour / Black & White Photography Community”. Created for those Hivers that love both black and white, and colour photography. You post both images together. I will be personally curating qualifying posts. Let’s get started!

Looks so different in black & white! The tree reflections are much more prominent here. Colours or Black & Whites, which do you prefer?

Sometimes speed boating can be dangerous…

That's a huge body of water, I believe that you had a great time despite missing the right turn. Thanks for the black and white photography notice, I actually enjoy both.

Great shots and thanks for taking us through your hike journey.
