Mossel Lake


Here I am at the waterfall that feeds Mossel Lake and you can see the cloudy water. It is the Rock Flour from the Sorsdal Glaciar that is crushing and grinding the rocks into dust. Below is the local mossbed which is not nearly as healthy as that at Lichen Lake but still another place that very few get to as i t is a sensitive area.


Scientists collecting fresh water macro-invertebrates with a small drag net, not a bad spot eh! Below if you look really hard you might see some of the little critters that are in the water as they look like little red lice but are a crustacean!


Wh can guess what these are? They were actually from Lichen Lake area but did not fit in that blog entry.
