It was cloudy most of the day, but still gave it a shot. I got up to the lake a half hour before sunset, there were still clouds, but they were teasing. There was a group of people at the start of dream lake, about ready to walk down and I told them I could only hope for a break. I didn't have all the equipment I wanted with me, but worked with the camera and still got the results I wanted.

Well Erik helps point the spot out Dream Lake Photos.
I obey the signs when possible. Sometimes, the shot isn't in the safe zone.

I don't think that restoration area will ever reopen. But it still a great photo location. Great shot by the way!
