A beach on Lake Pend Oreille

I stood on a beach at Lake Pend Oreille in north Idaho, in September 2023. Small waves were coming onto the sand, and farther out the water had a chop on it, with whitecaps around the posts of a breakwater and the mountains across the lake under a blue sky with white clouds. It was early afternoon, around 67, with a breeze around 9 miles an hour.

I took this from the sand, looking out over the water toward those peaks. The lake was wide and moving, and the light was bright on the waves.
