Surprise Lake

This is a long exposure of Surprise Lake in Grand Tetons National Park. This lake can be reached from the Lupine Meadow Trail head. The hike is around 9.5 miles round trip with much of it being switchbacks. Bears frequent this area and and I have seen both Grizzly and Black bear on this hike in previous years. Just a little further up the trail is Amphitheater Lake.

Started the climb before daybreak and got to the lake just before the sun fully lit the lake.
