Description
Not far from Moraine Lake and the Valley of the 10 Peaks is Emerald Lake. It is located over the Continental Divide and down into Yoho National Park, British Columbia, Canada.
Wikipedia says: It is the largest of the Yoho NP 61 lakes and ponds, as well as one of the park's premier tourist attractions. A 3.2 mile (5.2 km) hiking trail circuits the lake. The lake is enclosed by mountains of the President Range, as well as Mount Burgess and Wapta Mountain. This basin traps storms, causing frequent rain in summer and heavy snowfalls in winter. Due to its high altitude of 4,272 feet (1302 meters) above sea level, the lake is frozen from November until June. The vivid green and turquoise colors in the water, are caused by suspended powdered limestone and is most spectacular in July as the snow melts from the surrounding mountains. Thus the name Emerald Lake. That is Emerald Peak on the right. Photo taken in 1988 and later scanned. Do zoom.

superb capture mate ,
Breathtaking shot - but where's the nude? (Let me guess - underwater...)
OK, I had tagged the "nudity content advisory" by mistake and then there was a contract dispute and all the nude hikers went back to the lodge. My 'bad' as they say and the joke was on me. I have to pay more attention. Thanks to the four commenters that caught it!!!
I've done that. What a lovely capture this is!!!
