This image of Lake Cleveland near the summit of Mount Harrison in the Albion Mountains was absolutely worth the extra effort it took to get to the lake in the early summer. I researched the location, downloaded maps, and set off from Twin Falls at 3:30am to arrive before sunrise. However, nothing I read mentioned that the road would be closed from the Pomerelle Ski area up to the lake! This was my first time to visit, and I was not aware that the snow covers the roads in until about the first week of July. It was a one and a half hour drive to get there, and it looked like I might be able to hike up the road, so I set off up the road. There were areas that were clear, but some of the roadway was still covered with more than 6 feet of snow. Luckily I had good boots, and the snow was well packed. It was about an hour walk in, but I enjoyed a magnificent sunrise while hiking! When I arrived at the lake, the water was literally smooth as glass. The air was crisp and cold, and much of the approach to the lake was still covered in snow. However, the further side of the lake was clear, and absolutely stunning! I loved the sun-bleached trees along the lake shore, but it was challenging to keep my shadow out of the frame in order to use these as foreground elements. The reflection in the image is one of the most striking and clear I have ever been able to capture. The scene is so serene and calm that it fills me with peace each time I see it. The extra effort to hike in turned out to be worth it!
