Mohawk Lake Hike
| In hopes of both further experimentation with early morning, longer, low light exposures, as well as increasing my chances to see more wildlife, this trek once again began at the predawn hour of 5 am. The hike would ascend the Mohawk Lake Trail to lower and upper Mohawk Lake, Continental Falls, as well as several other unnamed high alpine lakes and meadows, and would span more than 12 miles, 10 hours, and close to 4000 total vertical feet. The weather was spectacular with absolutely no morning breeze allowing for some stunning reflective shots, but unfortunately with no wildlife to be seen. The lakes, streams, waterfalls, and forests encountered during the adventure are both spectacular and centering, and I am blessed to be able to immerse myself in my beloved Rocky Mountains. I was mostly pleased with the overall results, and have found that water with direct sunlight can be tricky to say the least. I have placed the images in chronological order and I hope you enjoy your visit and look at the Mohawk Lake Trail system. I always love to get any feedback you might have, and don’t forget to check out my posts on Instagram by following “the_mogul_skier”. Thanks and Enjoy! |
