Running around Rocks

 And then the next morning we woke up to this.

There was the lake. There was the blue sky.  There were the colourful rocks.  We just couldn't see anything in the gloom, everything was gray.

We drove down the road to do the Beehive trail.  A trail outlined with rocks leads up to 

and around these rock formations.

We had fun clambering about.

It was a sunny but blustery day. We never took off our down jackets.

We had so much fun that in the afternoon we drove to a place called the Chains  that overlooks the lake above the dam.

Imagine how narrow the canyon was here.  There was no trail here.

We just clambered over the rocks

And down to the lake.  In warmer weather people come here to swim.

The white shows how high the water once was.

The water is very deep and very clear.

Later in the day Leo photographed this rainbow from our campsite as he was coming back from his run.
