It's a long page, but it was a long day that started at 7am with the fog in the mountains and ended after sunset on the shores of Lake Champlain and Ausable Marsh (click on photos for larger view)

behind Ausable Chasm ~ notice the water level, it is completely dry on the left!
|
|
water barely spilling over the rocks at the Chasm!
|
but the mist is still eerie and beautiful!
|
do you see a face in the mist?
|
|
|
the water is not even rushing over the rocks on the bottom!
|
bone dry just above
|
notice the growth on the wall due to lack of forceful water hitting it?

very little activity here

how many faces can you find in the mist?
