Glacier Lakes

 The Glacier Lakes reached out to greet us as we came over the mountain side. Lakes one and two had a lot of thawing, but early morning snow brought a white blanket over everything…causing the golden ducks to strut with prominence and flash their colors with flare. 

                      A snowstorm set the stage for a beauty pageant.     The Yaks showed up in their black coats and lumbered around trying to steal the show from the Golden Ducks; however, the ducks were not to be denied their fair share of the action. The traversed across the lakes, flasing their colors while ignoring the sounds of the frozen lakes shifting loudly.

Sharing three days with this arresting beauty
fullfilled my long awaited desire to trek around
the Glacier Lakes and witness the grandeur.
