I had stopped taking photos of the lake, partly because it has always looked the same to me during the last couple years: dry. I don't know if that's just because the few times I've been by have been at the wrong times of year, but I don't really think that's the case: I think it was dry, and is fairly wet this year after a good snow year in the Sierra. The Susan River and Long Valley Creek have been running well this spring, though maybe slowing down recently.

I like the comparison shots. I do that when driving across the meadows outside the park on the Kaibab NF.
