Wildlife In addition to the spectacular views and landscapes I've experienced while enjoying the outdoors, encountering wildlife is added thrill to any hike or kayaking trip.
	Flowers At the right time of year, alpine meadows are spectacular with a wide assortment of wildflowers. Some of my hikes are timed to coincide with the flowering season.
	Reflections At times, the lake's surface can act as a mirror reflecting the shore, mountains and sky. I enjoy trying my artistic flair photographing these effects.
