Glacier National Park

On Tuesday we hiked to Grinnell Glacier.  On the hike we passed by Grinnell Lake, a glacial lake formed by runoff of the glacier.  Glacial lakes have beautiful aqua water due to the suspended sediment of glacial flour, ground stone made by the movement of the glacier.  The sun hits the water with the suspended flour and all the colors of the light is all absorbed except for blue, which is reflected.  Blue lakes, my favorite color!

One of the most scenic hikes we have ever been on.
