[Note Guidelines] Photographer's Note
Picture Lake, which is located in Mount Baker-Snoqualmie National Forest, in background Mount Shuksan - North Cascades National Park, WA - USA.

The "Picture Lake" is one of the most photographed mountain scene in North America. The image can be found on greeting cards, calendars and in commercial advertisement.

The Mount Baker-Snoqualmie National Forest extends more than 140 miles along the western slopes of the Cascade Range from the Canadian border to the northern boundary of Mount Rainier National Park.
The Mount Baker-Snoqualmie National Forest contains many scenic and historical points of interest. Mountain tops gradually rise from 5,000 to 6,000 feet on the south end of the forest to 7,000 to 8,000 feet in the north. Two tall volcanoes, Mount Baker and Glacier Peak, tower thousands of feet above the adjacent ridges. The Forest is home to more glaciers and snow fields than any other National Forest outside Alaska.

The large population factor, coupled with easy road access, makes the Mt. Baker-Snoqualmie National Forest one of the most visited National Forests in the US.

The lake is smooth as glass and that snowy mountain makes a very good reflection.
