Only three kilometers away, the still surface of Lac Mwakw mirrors the vast, open sky, holding a clarity that makes the cold air feel sharp and clean against the lungs. The landscape here does not offer easy shelter, yet its stark, unyielding beauty commands a profound respect from those who traverse its rocky, windswept reaches.
