Where’s the Lake?
The last time I was at Donner Lake for sunrise, I was treated to the most amazing sunrise I have ever witnessed. I wanted to go back and try it in the snow, but how could one ever top that previous encounter? Well, I can’t. Not this time at least. In fact, the weather forecast wasn’t looking too good, and I wondered if I should even try. I was hoping for at least some clouds, but when I woke up in the morning, the weather report said clear in Truckee. But light fog. Light fog, hmmm. Well, that might be cool if there is fog over the lake. So off I went to Donner Lake in search of light fog, and hopefully a few clouds as well. Well, there were no clouds to be had when I arrived at Donner Lake. No spectacular sunrises on the horizon. But there was fog over the lake, and it indeed was pretty cool looking. I waited around for the sun to come up. It did take quite a while for it to come up over the mountains, but it wasn’t very cold out fortunately (but we sure need some more snow here).
