Mills Lake -- Wonderful!

Mills Lake is indescribable. The ranger was correct. It really truly is prettier than any of the four post-card lakes! Being so far out in the wilderness, most professional photographers don't want to lug their equipment out here. My little Canon supershot, however, did just fine in my backpack, even without a tripod. You''ve simply GOT to click on these images for the detailed pictures.

After spending close to an hour just drinking in the peace, serenity solitude, and beauty, I headed further up the trail to Jewel Lake.
