Description Joffre Lake, near Pemberton BC (also North of Whistler). Those are glaciers you see on the mountains there, which make the lake very cold. There are actually four of these lakes, but the other three required hiking and there wasn't time (or the inclination). Even this one, which is so close to the road and campsites, looks pristine.

Even though the water looks like it's freezing, it looks like it could be warm at the same time.

You've got a lovely widlerness scene here. A like, the forest, and the powerful moutain.

wow, I love the shot, the colour and transition between elements.
Anyways, i know the lake would be cold (been in too many mountain lakes XD) but it still looks inviting... maybe for a boat?

Beautiful shot! You just prompted me to look up Joffre Lake.. I'm usually out exploring/camping in parts just south of Whistler but haven't gone farther north for the most part; looks like I'm gonna have to now..
Again.. great shot, I like it alot!

I love how you barely got a little of some trees in the top of the photo, and some grass in the bottom. I think that really adds a very nice touch.

Mmm, that water looks so cool and inviting I wanna jump in and swim surrounded by that great view

This is a lovely shot, I like the different textures and colours and the image captures the whole area well. I also like the angle, means you get a great idea of how huge those mountains must be. I just gotta
