Rocky Mountain National Park – Dream Lake (Day 15)
November 15th, 2008 by Neil Corman
I could have stayed in bed and continued dreaming, however for Day 15 of Thirty Days 2008 I headed to Rocky Mountain National Park and the Bear Lake area. After photographing around Bear Lake at sunrise I hike a little over a mile to Dream Lake. As usual there was a stuff wind, and once I got to Dream Lake it just started to howl. I didn’t spend much time around the lake, as this was also a scouting mission for future trips towards Dream Lake later this winter.
On this scouting trip I realized towards the end of the hike I probably should have had some snowshoes with me, but it wasn’t too bad. Also with my many layers I was good and know what is needed along the hike.
Stop by tomorrow for Day 16 of Thirty Days 2008.

Gorgeous! Tricky white balance and exposure situation but it looks like you nailed it!

Great shot Neil! I’m loving the foreground and the composition. I’m jealous…I wish I was there (though I imagine it was freezing and miserable to get up so early). Love it.

Fantastic image, Neil. RMNP is looking far more winter-like than Glacier. Of course, it is much higher.
