Dorothy Lake 4.12.05
I was just looking to get out somewhere I hadn't been before. I figured the snow level would be low so I wasn't too concerned over the large thundershowers as I made my way to the trailhead. As I suspected the rain turned to steady snowfall by the time I reached the end of the road. After about a half mile the trail was consistent snow. The snow was soft and combined with the easy grade made for quick work. I stayed on the trail to about the mid point of the lake, just south of the major point on the eastern shore. I had a quick lunch and since there wasn't much to see because of the low clouds I didn't stay long. The snow only increased in purpose as the afternoon wore on. The lake is still completely frozen and doesn't appear that it will thaw any time soon.
