Hector Lake
+ My Favorites
The beautiful green waters of Hector Lake spread below a fresh carpet of lush forest. While the southern part of the lake is forest-enclosed, the northern end is set hard against rugged mountains which is typical of a lake formed in a glacial basin. View Mount Balfour and the Waputik Range to the southwest.
