Description
A serene mountain lake is surrounded by lush greenery and tall pine trees under an overcast sky. In the foreground, vibrant orange wildflowers add a pop of color to the scene.
Picture Lake is the centerpiece of a strikingly beautiful landscape in the Heather Meadows area. The classic alpine vista of Mt. Shuksan, in the background, mirrored in Picture Lake is one of the most photographed mountain scenes in North America. A backdrop of mountains, wildflowers and colorful plant foliage make this a beautiful, universally accessible family hike. The day we were there, however, fog covered Mt. Shuksan, and only a portion of it was to be seen. It is ruggedly beautiful in all kinds of weather.
