The Great Outdoors - Hiking and so on…

Thanks @Max Power, enjoy the rest of your time!
In regards of the water, it's was told to me by one who knows more about it, just like Max Power explained it. Chalk, and in some cases algae can change the color of water to that turquoise.

Great pics @marlin and @Max Power
As long as we have glaciers, there will be this great rock powder phenomenon!

Thanks @Max Power and @marlin
We have only one chalky mountain that I'm aware of (probably many more that I'm not) in CO called Mt. Princeton, but its cliffs very sheer and difficult to summit (in fact, it's a terrible and often fatal idea to even try) and I don't think it has a lake:
There's a beautiful creek (Chalk Creek) in the region and copious hot springs and hot springs cabins. Some friends there have a geothermal greenhouse growing all kinds of crazy stuff as well as three cabins with hot spring-fed "pools" in their back yards, backing up to Chalk Creek.

Not quite the level of @marlin and some of you other adventurers but I did a hike from the cabin today with Hot Ingrid, Jesper and the in-laws. The cabin is at 60m over sea level, and the peak we arrived at is 626m. It is a relatively gentle approach followed by some fairly steep climbs either side of a plateau. It’s been a while so I found it tough going and failed to take good pics [emoji23]
At the start. Destination is behind the highlighted peak:

They are less of an issue above the tree line (about 400m osl). The peak is still hidden behind the one highlighted:
Bit of a break with my father-in-law. Representing the brand… [emoji23]
