Hi all,
I went hiking yesterday with some family in Rocky Mountain National Park and caught some neat pictures of a couple of the high elevation lakes up here around timberline. The view was really gorgeous so I thought I'd share a few of them here for any fellow outdoors-men. Believe me when I say the pictures don't do them justice.

That's Dream Lake. It's at about 9,900 feet and just below timberline I think; I'd have to ask Grats, he would probably know more than myself.
Emerald Lake at 10,100 feet elevation. Something interesting about these two lakes is that they're both glacier-fed, along with the streams running down the side of the mountain.
A bit of comparison of the distance from Emerald Lake to Hallett Peak. You can see where the trees stop growing.
