The sky was full of drama Saturday night. The Pharaoh Lake Wilderness is a good choice for anything from a one night trip to a full week in the woods. Pharaoh Lake itself has several camping spots and lean-to’s. This is looking towards the eastern part of the lake.

What a cool picture!
Thanks!
Wonderful shot! Very jealous :-). Have spent many, many nights on Pharaoh over the last 30+ years and have taken many photographs across the full spectrum of seasons (including a fair number in the very spot this photo was taken in). None come close to the power and majesty of this piece. WELL DONE!!!
Thank you! This is one of my favorite spots and places to camp. When it’s a clear night you have an amazing view of the stars.
You should sign you photo!! You just left a 4 megapixel gift on the net.
