Trout Lake Covered In Snow (Snow Scenes Near Lizard Head Pass - January 2008)

If you've driven Lizard Head Pass, you've seen Trout Lake. It's a beautiful lake not far from the summit of the pass. I was totally shocked yesterday to see it so covered with snow that you wouldn't know a lake was even there. The poor trout must be freezing! :p)
Another view of Trout Lake.
I'd like to see a pedestrian try to cross here!
Some nice little cabins on the lake.
It does look like most of these homes are lived in year-round because they have their driveways plowed and paths dug out to their front doors.
I didn't get a picture of the summit of Lizard Head Pass, but I should have gotten one of the outdoor toilets my friends were talking about after visiting them this summer. There is at least ten feet of snow around them and they don't keep the road plowed that loops around by the toilets. It looks so different compared to the summertime up there!
