Spring Thaw
The advent of Spring in the alpine often comes slowly. Even as one notices a few perennial plants here and there pushing up from bare spots on the forest floor, there is still snow to be seen in most other places. A few yellow glacier lilies will actually point their heads up right through the snow and alpine lakes begin to thaw as temperatures climb revealing beautiful abstract patterns of water, snow, and ice.
