The image of a blue sky over a lake in the Boundary Waters can motivate many to pack the car and head north. However, I often have found my visits are greeted by gray skies, mist, and the need for a jacket in July. I have learned to embrace these conditions and every type of weather that is presented. This image of Mountain Lake looking east from the Border Route Trail reflects my belief that there is beauty in all that this wilderness has to offer.
