A shot of my campsite, complete with a bear box. This is the only one developed campsite on these two lakes.

That is one serious picnic table. Do they allow motors on those lakes?

Thanks everybody who has shared their best picture from 2016 so far! I truly enjoy seeing them all and makes me thirst for spring!

Yes they do, it's Chugach NF. But ive never seen one on the Lakes, they are small and the 1/4 mile portage makes it difficult to get a motor in.

I just thought it would be interesting to see what ONE picture from 2016 stood out to each person. I know it isn't easy deciding on just ONE picture, that is why I asked. I flip flopped on several before I finally decided on my ONE.

I wish there was a LOVE or WOW button to click on under each of these pictures like FB. These are all great shots! Almost wish I didn't start this thread because the more I look at these pictures the more I long for being there this spring.

I like this photo of a couple from Boulder Colorado that I took on Saganaga in early October the best.
I thought they looked interesting so I approached and asked to photograph them as I sat in my canoe.
I like how the canoe leads the eye to them and how they are looking in opposite directions surveying their surroundings. The color of their clothing and faded canoe really works in my opinion.
I had a long conversation with them and found out they've led very interesting lives. I enjoy connecting with people as much as photographing scenery these days. I sent them the photo and a few others and they used one in their Holiday letter and yearly adventure recap.

I know what you mean, I am ready to go right now, just wish it was May up there. I find it interesting what people consider to be their favorite picture of the year when they can only choose ONE.

Good point, it would be the second one Rainbow Lakes, there are actually two Lakes there, they are smaller, about an hour's paddle around both of them. They are landlocked with a 1/4 mile portage into them from my car.
I was the only one on either Lake that nite.
A shot of my campsite, complete with a bear box. This is the only one developed campsite on these two lakes.
