After hiking in Jewel Basin, we decided to give Kyra and Hannah a closer view of the lakes near us. We swung past Echo Lake, and were surprised at the low water level. Here’s a photo I took back in October:

And here’s a photo today from the same spot. The lake is gone!

A bit disappointed in Echo Lake, we went to Flathead Lake State Park and walked around the northeast shoreline of Flathead Lake. There were some cool rocks that are normally underwater (the lake is currently eight feet below “full pool”).

The clouds were “brooding” a bit…

Hannah snapped a shot of me looking out over the water.

No matter what time of year, or what the weather, Flathead Lake doesn’t disappoint.
