British Columbia, Canada
We have our friend Gary to thank for hosting us on this spectacular backpacking trip. We hiked to Garibaldi Lake north of Vancouver BC last weekend and camped for two nights. The drive to the trailhead alone reveals sites that would have made the trip worthwhile. The hike is 9km in to the lake which is fed by a glacier that dominates the opposite side. The color of the water is almost beyond description and made me feel that I should desaturate the photo so I wouldn't be accused of color-tampering.
