Rifflsee, or Riffle Lake. Note the lovely reflection on the water. I tried later, right at noon, to get a photo, but the overhead sun washed out the reflection. The water is a roiling gray color up close - the same color as the glacier water which feeds it. I assume that the color comes from the particulate matter which washes down from the glacier in the rushing water.
