Icy Lake(冰湖)| Stunning Hike

The Icy Lake near Yubeng Village is about 3800m height, which takes 4-5 hours to arrive and 3 hours to go back. It's my first snow hiking trail, kinda of super excited.
First we will come across a farm, then all the way up into the forest with more and more snow piling up. It's unbelievable how those lovely and bold those squirrels are. They just came into us and even jump onto us for food, eat and carry some back to their home. There is a platform where we can have a quite open view of the icy lake, and forest decorated with snow, what a Christmas vibe! Coming down from the platform, here comes my favourite part：super thick snow in the forest! Can't help laying down and have fun, while other people have a snowball fight! Hahaha~

After 1.5 hours hike through another farm, and a small peak, we finally arrived the gorgeous Icy Lake covered in white, with some glaciers on the top. Beautiful as it is, but watch out when you walk around the lake as there are constantly icy bricks or rocks falling down. Here are some photos!
