Framing a photo~Mosquito Lake~Sunday Stills Challenge 070410


We stopped by Mosquito Lake this afternoon on our way back from Markleyville, which is just south of Lake Tahoe, CA. We took the Kit Carson trail, now a road, from Folsom to Markleyville, and Route 4 back. This beautiful lake had snow still in spots all around it and I stopped to frame this shot using two pine trees on either side. Sunday Stills Challenge for July 4, 2010.

    Gail, I don't know the story behind its name. We had never been through this particular area before! There were a lot of fishermen and women here at this lake, however!
