Jumped into this freezing lake on a whim and immediately could not breathe. Very thankful my fight or flight kicked in and I made it back to shore. Did not regret a second of it though I will forever love the feeling of freezing water on my skin. Montana

💦must see lake in Banff National Park
Location: Alberta Canada 🇨🇦 Tips: - You can no longer drive directly to the lake. You can only see the lake with a shuttle and timed entry ticket. -Book ahead through an approved operator such as Parks Canada or public transit. -Book tickets in advance so you get the time slot you want.

Hiking Colchuck Lake *college girl*
I finally got to check off this hike from my bucket list! Colchuck lake is a bit of a drive from seattle so it always seemed like a full day trip to commit to. This year I was able to convince my dad to drive us out! We did have to make it a full day trip but it was so worth it! We woke up and left

Three people with backpacks walk across the vast frozen surface of Gold Cord Lake in Hatcher Pass, Alaska, surrounded by snow-covered mountains under a cloudy sky, ready for alpine ice skating.
Two individuals ice skate on the expansive frozen Gold Cord Lake, with skate marks visible on the ice and snow-dusted mountains in the background, offering ample space for family and friend adventures.
A snowy trail leads towards Gold Cord Lake, marked by a wooden signpost indicating the "Gold Cord Lake Trail" and advising to stay on the path due to delicate tundra, with mountains in the distance.

This is one of the lakes that freezes over the fastest because it’s up in the mountains. It’s about an hour and a half drive from Anchorage and a 2 mile hike up to the lake. It’s absolutely worth it and don’t forget to bring your skates, because the ice is amazing at the beginning of winter. Someti

Snow Lake is a gorgeous alpine lake up in the Cascade Mountains. It’s just over an hour from Seattle. The hike is 7.2 miles if you do the whole hike. You can just hike to the Snow Lake Viewpoint and then turn back and save a couple of miles. There is really no need to go all the way down to the lak
