2019 Rees-Dart Track: lake in Dredge Flat created by 2014 landslide in Dart Valley, Mount Aspiring NP, New Zealand.

Forest killed by newly flooded lake. In this 2019 photo, Dart River forms a blue-green lake in Dredge Flat, dammed by the 2014 Jan 04 landslide, which required rough, rooty rerouting of three sections of the Rees-Dart Track, reopened in late 2017. Suspended glacial powder colors the lake turquoise. In 5 days, we tramped the strenuous Rees-Dart Track for 39 miles plus 12.5-mile side trip to spectacular Cascade Saddle, in Mount Aspiring National Park, Otago region, South Island of New Zealand. This image was stitched from multiple overlapping photos.
