LOCATION.
1. Evergreen lake is about 10 minutes south on the Evergreen Parkway, off I-70.

3. Here the ice skating area is being plowed off for opening day.
4. Usually opens for skating sometime in December, weather permitting.


CHALLENGE.
Get in my Jeep and start driving around looking for feature photos for the "X Shot".


SOLUTION.
I came upon a nice situation pretty quick. At Evergreen Lake, a crew worked on clearing snow off  that part of the lake used for ice skating. It was a to cold and windy day for a hike but I had to  get some elevation to show the patterns carved on the ice. I went light, carrying two cameras with a couple of lenses. The hike did the trick, I was able get some nice images.
