Crystal Waters of Lower Blue Lake

Nestled in the heart of the rugged San Juan Mountains lies the serene Lower Blue Lake within the Mt. Sneffels Wilderness area. Towering peaks rise majestically above the emerald waters reflecting the sky's azure hues while patches of snow cling to their craggy faces. A carpet of verdant greenery blankets the slopes transitioning into alpine meadows speckled with wildflowers under an expansive sky dotted with wispy clouds.
