Wind on Kamloops Lake

Kamloops Lake -- looking toward the city of Kamloops, B.C.

 

There was a fierce wind blowing when I took this shot. It whipped the grasses around, sometimes nearly flattened the sagebrush and made the lake very choppy. The lake is striped with the cloud shadows across it.

 

The two distinct blue peaks are Mt. Peter and Mt. Paul located at the far side of the city of Kamloops, 22 km away. If you zoom in on the left side of Battle Bluff down by the lake's edge you will see the railway tunnel still in use. I'd never seen it before myself as it can only be seen from the lake.
