Breathtaking beauty at Mirror Lakes
Before arriving at Mirror Lakes, we were told by our guide that the views were stunning. Little did we know…
Once out of our bus at Mirror Lakes, we made our way to an slightly elevated wooden walkway that traversed the rest area’s length. Like ants, we filed along. Pretty much every single person who made that little walk started taking photos. Most were content to shoot their photos from wherever they could stop. I was determined to skip ahead or fall back to stay out of the pack and get a clear shot.
