CRYSTAL LAKE FOR A DAY


With no plans in mind  to get out and beat the heat, we decided to drive up to Crystal lake. 

First we stopped at the Crystal Lake cafe to have lunch. It was very cool with a light breeze. 

We parked by the Lake trail and headed down towards the lake. We found a nice shady spot under a tree.

The lake was full and so pretty. The last winter storm filled the lake.  The last time I was here a few years ago, the lake was very low so it was nice to see it looking full again.

There was not alot of people there so the serenty was nice. 

I was amazed at how the trees reflected off the lake and how the colors of the lake really shone.

We decided just to relax and admire the lake in all its beauty.

Afterwards, we drove to the Amphittheatre. Then we decided to check out Soldier creek trail. To our surprise it was overflowing with a good amount of water. The water was freezing cold but very refreshing. There were mini cascades and towards the end of the trail we found a waterfall. it was a beautiful shaded trail. Truly, another  hidden gem in the Crystal Lake area.
