Snow Shelf and Red Snow

In the photo below, if you look to the top you will see a ledge, just to the right of the water. The snow drift is around 12 feet high and dripping rapidly into the shallow little lake. This shot was taken with a #cellphone on the top of one of the peaks at the Sierra Nevadas. The water was crystal clear and the dripping water from the snow shelf was the best tasting ever.

Additionally, the interesting thing to talk about in this photo is the Red Snow. It's actually an algae. We also packed some of the snow into our water bottles, but we scraped the red snow away beforehand.
