The Autumn Holdout

Visiting Jasper in early November was interesting; all of the lakes were just on the verge of freezing in the -20ºC, and the steam they'd produced had surrounded lakes such as Pyramid Lake with a gorgeous coat of hoarfrost. The one holdout was Patricia Lake, pictured here. Unlike Pyramid, less than 2km down the road, there was hardly any ice around this lake, and no snow whatsoever. It just added to what ended up being a day full of contrasts!
