Iceberg Lake

Iceberg Lake - Sierra Nevada  2010

During the 1989 backpack we hiked up from Lake Ediza, past Iceberg Lake to Cecile Lake. I couldn't find any good photos of Iceberg Lake taken in 1989, but luckily I have the above photo taken in 2010, using a Nikon D90 DSLR.

I don't think I've ever seen any icebergs in Iceberg Lake. Charis Wilson described it thus in 1937: "there it was; a little lake with cakes of ice and snow floating over its inky water." No icebergs now though. Wonder why.
