Azure Lake in the Uinta Mountains

This is Haystack Mountain glowing a dull sandy white hue in this image I lensed while flying and exploring the wilderness areas of the Wasatch National Forest east of the Great Salt Lake in Utah. 

With the clouds providing an occluded cover and diffusing the bright sunlight I was able  to capture this image of the Provo River Watershed around Haystack Mountain and Murdoch Basin. 

Sitting just outside the western of the Uinta Mountains, this area is known as Lake Country and is home to numerous glacial lakes that dot the landscape. Haystack Mountain is a wonderful place to camp and hike  in and the lakes sitting to the bottom left of the mountain are famous  for their fishing.

The lake at the very bottom middle of Haystack Mountain is Azure Lake  and to the right of that is Shadow Lake and further to the right on the  far right side of the image is Washington Lake. 

The lake towards the  bottom of this image and slightly in from the right side is Haystack  Lake and the one all by itself toward the bottom middle of this image is  Blue Lake.  

Above Haystack Mountain in the background distance lies Mount Watson,  Notch Mountain, Reids Peak and Mount Marsell. Then on the other side of  this is the state of Wyoming and the Uinta Mountains.  

This image is from my ongoing project in which I am trying to  raise awareness of the 47% of the USA and 90% of Canada that remain  unpopulated wilderness.

Where Eagles Fly - The American Wilderness Expedition is my personal  mission to introduce people to these amazing locations that surround us.
