So, after a few hours of sleep, I drove three hours to arrive at Estes Park and the Bear Lake Trail head. I met up with a photographer friend, Kane Englebert, and we hit the trail a couple hours before sunrise. THe last time Kane and I hiked this trail, it was raining and sleeting and despite a brief break at sunrise, the peaks never really lit up. This time, the weather cooperated and we ended up with a beautiful sunrise from Two Rivers Lake, a small lake that is off-trail. Kane used his GPS to give us a short trip off the trail to reach the half-frozen lake shore. The colors were already starting to blossom when we reached the lake, and I couldn&#8217;t resist taking one shot of the brilliant colors to the east!<\/p>\n<figure id=\"photo_55901\" class=\"wp-caption alignnone\" style=\"width: 700px;\"><a class=\"\" title=\"Two Rivers Sunrise\" href=\"http:\/\/www.stanroseimages.com\/photo\/tworivers-a\/\"><img decoding=\"async\" style=\"max-width: 700px; height: auto;\" alt=\"Two Rivers,Rocky Mountain National Park,Colorado,sunrise\" class=\"size-full\" src=\"http:\/\/www.stanroseimages.com\/images\/large\/TwoRivers-a3.jpg\" \/><\/a><figcaption class=\"wp-caption-text\"><\/p>\n<p class=\"extra\"><a class=\"title\" title=\"Two Rivers Sunrise\" href=\"http:\/\/www.stanroseimages.com\/photo\/tworivers-a\/\">Two Rivers Sunrise<\/a> : <a class=\"print\" title=\"Prints Available\" href=\"http:\/\/www.stanroseimages.com\/product\/prints\/55901\/\">Prints Available<\/a><\/p>\n<p>Sunrise in November 2014 at Two RIvers Lake in Rocky Mountain National Park<\/p>\n<p><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>Then, I slipped along the ice on the shoreline in search of a good angle on the lake and distant peaks. The wind was really starting to pick up and it was biting cold; between the wind and the ice it was tricky finding a steady spot to place my tripod.
