Summer Is For Hiking: Florence Lake, August 18 2012
On August 18 2012 drove to Florence Lake in the Sierra Nevada near Shaver Lake area, John Muir Wilderness, California. However there was a storm coming in with large amounts of lightning. I caught part of the storm as she was coming in but did not have time to hike around the lake before the storm drew close. This will happen on another visit. Here are views of the lake and surrounding mountains. It is very scenic and quiet; the road to get there at times allows only one vehicle. It appears the lake will be drained for one year http://www.florence-lake.com/
