A lake with a tree-lined shore, a large hotel building, and dark mountains under a cloudy sky.

We arrived in mid-July to some dramatic, cloudy skies hanging over the lake. Our hotel was a large, historic-looking building right on the shore, set against the dark green mountains. For a bit, the water was perfectly still, giving off a great reflection of the building and the massive clouds overhead.
