I have seen photos of the lake but they haven’t prepared me for how it feels to experience it myself. Rounding the corner, the sight of the emerald green water and rugged peaks and glaciers hits i viscerally. I’ve never seen anything so dramatically beautiful. Late in the day, with the glowing sun dropping behind Mount Victoria, it is quiet and still. As you wander around the lakeside path it seems like the whole scene is for just to enjoy. It is a feeling i will remember forever.
