Flood waters rushing over spillway at Medicine Creek Park
Ft Sill, OK
A westbound slop freight hustles through Medicine Bow, WY on the Laramie Subdivision, passing the 1912-built depot constructed by the UPRR.
Medicine Lake is located within Jasper National Park, Alberta, Canada. It is located approximately 20 km southeast of the townsite of Jasper, Alberta. Medicine Lake is approximately 7 km long and is a relatively shallow lake.
This is also my photo for the 52 in 2018 Challenge - #41 - A reflection.

Summer visitors assume that Medicine Lake is a normal mountain lake, but it isn't.
During the summer, glacier melt waters flood the lake, sometimes overflowing it. In fall and winter the lake disappears, becoming a mudflat with scattered pools of water connected by a stream. But there is no visible channel draining the lake – so where then does the water go?
The answer is, "out the bottom", like a bathtub without a plug. The Maligne River pours into the lake from the south and drains out through sinkholes in the bottom. The water then streams through a cave system formed in the slightly soluble limestone rock, surfacing again in the area of Maligne Canyon 16 kilometers downstream.
Summer melt water coming into the lake exceeds the capacity of the sinkholes to drain it. Decreased melt water in the late summer and fall means that the lake's sinkholes can drain the lake faster then the Maligne River can fill it. This creates the disappearing lake phenomena.
Medicine Lake is a Unesco World Heritage Site.
Much to read...but it's really interesting.. :-)

A few years ago, I was staying at a cabin near Glacier with a dream of seeing a sunrise at Two Medicine with Mt. Sinopah reflected in the glass lake. Well, the wind picked up on my drive there and there were no clouds to add color to the morning. I managed the shot seen below in my photo stream - pre-dawn with the constellation Orion above the horizon.
Last week, however, I found myself in the same cabin with the same dream, and it happened to come true. I have to admit I was a bit lazy about it - we were running late because I missed the turn initially and didn't realize it until about 15 miles down the road - and didn't take the time to set up with a tripod. Although we were first on the scene, we didn't quite have the place to ourselves as we were joined by 2 other photographers that had the pleasure of viewing this with us.
A still life photo manipulated image of a selection of early to mid-1900s medicines with a vintage effect applied.
Four vertical images stitched in LR. I didn't have a tripod and was quite surprised this turned out okay.
Pretty combination there in the Medicine Bow Forest ... lower elevation than the previous post with all the snow. A day later and about 4,000 feet lower in elevation for this section of the national forest park.
Taken circa August 1999. This film panorama image is composed of 4 merged prints. This peak is 12,018 feet (3663 meters) and is located in southeast Wyoming. The hikes to the summit is along a 4 mile ridge and 2000 feet elevation gain (right). My Border Collie almost ran off the cliff but luckily listen when I screamed "STOP". Needless to say, my heart nearly stopped and he was on a leash for the rest of the hike.
Taken with Nikon FM2, Nikkor 35mm f/1.4.
Picture of the Day
Moonrise over medicine lake. The rising full moon illuminates medicine lake in Jasper national park casting a faint moon bow. This place is beautiful and eerie at the same time. All one could here was some hidden critter trampling over dry autumn leaves. Moments after I took this picture, I scampered back to my car
If you look closely there is a person sitting high by the rocks there in Wyoming, adding nice scale to the boulders there atop the peak.
Medicine lake is quite pretty in its own right, but it is right between the main highway and the very well known Maligne lake. It is really easy to overlook! I had explored the shoreline for a few spots to shoot from while I was in Jasper, and eventually settled on this spot. I kept telling myself I would shoot from here, but put it off several times for other locations. On my last night in Jasper I decided to finally make sure that I got to this spot and after taking this picture I took a moment to reflect on my time in this incredible park. I couldn't help but feel incredibly lucky for my time in this special place.
Shortly thereafter a black bear slid down the hill on the left side of the image and I was right back to reality and heading for the car!
This was the last photo from my time in the Rockies in Summer 2016.
This past weekend I took a day trip down to BNSF’s Hi-Line to shoot some new territory including making sure I grabbed a shot here at the Two Medicine Bridge.
H-SPOGRF1-16A BNSF 3260E speeds eastward with 3 units and only 64 cars destined for Great Falls, MT. The fall colours were just below their peak when I shot this, in the next week is when I’d assume everything in the area will be at its peak.

i promise to myself that i'll never gonna touch this thing again... really painful all that must i take because of this nasty flu, especially must away from Flickr, from my dearest friends!
with the Sugarloaf on the right. Look closely and you will see: Snow-slides (aka avalanche trails)! Snow shelves waiting to fall! All sorts of excitement there in that static shot.
PS I see that you can't do a close up on this shot. Just squint a little.
Pano taken from the Miner's Cabin trail head.
I decided to not go down I-80 (I try to avoid the freeways as much as possible), but went along WY 130, which is a beautiful drive, up the Snowy Range, and down into Laramie. I did my master's work up in the Snowy Range, and have fond memories of snowstorms in July, trying to collect samples in the driving rain (plus lightning! thunder! above the treeline!) in August thunderstorms, and wearing orange vests so that the hunters wouldn't shoot me in fall.
