Snow on Hamlin Dunes

 
You've seen these dunes before, but not like this!

This is frozen Hamlin Lake. You are looking across to point 5 on the map at Hamlin Lake, from just south of point 4. When I swam the lake it was from 4 to 5. But there wasn't any swimming today!

Here are a couple of closer views. First is the south dune, and then the north dune. The look of snow on sand- the way they sort of mix- is always interesting.

I like visiting places in different seasons. You can see these same dunes in pictures at the two posts below

There is some merit in the "seasons" after all!

I see what you mean about the snow and sand look.

Oh wow! I don't think I have ever seen snow on the sand dunes. That is lovely.

The snow is pretty! I think I would prefer sand over snow dunes too.

I have not been able to get warm since returning to San Francisco! Your photos today really have me shivering. They are beautiful but I would've had to have brandy fortification and the warmest down covering to be out in those temperatures!
