Columbia Lake


		Columbia Lake July 6, 2007. We are staying in Radium Valley Vacation Resort-Resort, in Radium Hot Springs. $51.00 FHU including cable but NO wifi, paved interior roads, large sites with covered picnic tables. The negative with this park is the price and NO wifi. We would much rather stay in the Canyon RV-Park but they were full. We will stay in another park when we return to Radium Hot Springs just because of the price and no wifi. However, if you like resorts with pools and such this would be the place for you.

We are near the headwaters of the Columbia River. Shortly this marsh area will become a beautiful lake.

While I included this picture grain and hay operations are few and far between around here. Columbia Lake British Columbia Columbia Lake is the headwaters of the mighty Columbia River. Columbia Lake British Columbia Columbia Lake in British Columbia Columbia Lake The array of colors seen in Columbia Lake are the result of glacial silt in the water. However, according to a kiosk at the overlook, Columbia Lake is spring fed yet the same kiosk says the milky colors in the lake are the result of glacial silt in the water. Well, is it spring fed or glacial melt? In any event this lake is where the 4th largest, by volume, river system on the continent begins its journey to the sea.
