Story time because no one asked or cared:
Shortly before they closed the road this October, my SO and I scrambled Mt. Temple. So, we car camped at the Moraine Lake parking lot.
At around 1230am I was restless so took a walk up the rock pile overlooking the lake. It was a full moon, and it lit up everything. The lake, the valley of the ten peaks behind it. I was the only one there - not a soul in sight. It was one of the most beautiful sights I had ever seen. To be alone at that insanely busy lake is one thing, but to be alone in the moonlight - it was pretty special.
I know it sounds hokey, but I felt like my life was changing at that moment. That something big was happening, but not to worry too much. I couldn't really understand it at the time.
The next day as we scrambled up Mt Temple, my SO was complaining about cramps, and that her chest was super sore and tender. I found out the next weekend she is pregnant with twins lol. I don't believe in the supernatural, but that was a very weird course of emotional events. When the little gremlins are of age I'll be sure to take them hiking there.

That’s beautiful! But I thought Nepal was landlocked? Which coast is this?

I agree - I have plenty of this same shot in landscape as well. They get more upvotes in vertical because everyone's looking on their phone now lol - I'll post the horizontal one in a few weeks though!

Awesome.

I'll say it again, in my opinion, landscape pictures should be taken in landscape mode not portrait. Still a beautiful lake and worth having a picture of it.

Amazing! I visited Banff/Alberta for the first time October 29 and it was already too snowy to visit Lake Louise. I got to see Lake Moraine which I was very grateful for. Beautiful shot!

Around October 7... It was extremely warm about 20 degrees C. Normally it would be snowing. It was very humid so there was a lot of haze

If you zoom in on this picture you'll see two cabins. They're on AirBnb and the host is awesome. We stayed in one a few years back. The mountain is literally your back yard.
