May 27, 2020 – Slocan Valley

A frequent drive for me is Highway 6 from the Castlegar area up toward New Denver. This winding highway goes up into the mountains and also down around Slocan Lake. This particular spot is actually the Slocan Lake viewpoint which you can stop at before descending down the hills into Silverton. You get a nice view of the lake from a high elevation but this photo is actually using my cheap 55-200mm lens pointed across at the mountains on the other side.
