Lake Mc Kenzie
clear fresh water
Window Lake
There are many rainy days at night during my stay on the Island.
The more it rains, the easier it is to drive on sandy roads.
The dry sand road winds up dust and runs and the wheels are taken.
The powdery sand soars in the wind and swallows a forest.
It's like being buried in a flood of sand and eventually all withering.
It transforms into a pitiful figure with dead trees standing in the dunes.
Much of the rainwater is stored in a dome-shaped groundwater layer that seeps out of the dunes throughout the Island into streams that flow to the east coast.
The representative Eli Creek.
A popular spot with good transparency.
Just looking at a stream without garbage will wash your heart.
It makes the cameraman cry on a strong wind day.
Protect with a camera cover to prevent fine sand from entering.
You can see the difference in color between the old sand and the new sand brought from the east.
It's like a living thing.
Run through the woods and search for three lakes.
About an hour from King Fischer Bay in the west, the sandy road blocks the way.
Window Lake Window Lake
Window Lake, water is black but not muddy (including tannins flowing out of trees).
A pond-like place in the resort is this type of lake.
There are places where abundant groundwater is above the ground through a large amount of sand filters.
The water surface rises and falls depending on the amount of underground water.

Perched Lake（Perched
Lake）
Lake Mc Kenzie called Perched Lake.
Twigs such as rotten leaves are deposited on the sand to form a water-impermeable layer.
It is said that rainwater accumulated on it and it became a lake as a result of many years.
It's definitely fresh water when you put it in your mouth.
It's so transparent that its depth is immeasurable.

Watching the "moving sand" and staring at the fallen trees in the wonder of nature.
A miserable figure that becomes a graveyard in the forest and becomes a dead tree due to the rushing sand.
A tree whose roots are about to collapse.
"Sand river" where sand flows like a stream.
No garbage is floating in the lake.
At the water's edge like a pure white wedding dress.
The power of nature produces beauty with great power.
Blue and clouds in the sky.
Standing in front of Lake Mc Kenzie raises admiration.
The scenery that is mistaken for the sea is NO1 without complaint among the 40 lakes.
A lake with an elegant and quiet smile.
Of all the lakes, I like it the most.
"Barrage Lake", a lake where a stream is dammed by sand.
The movement of sand will fill the lake and eventually bury it.
Helped by the rain that fell a few hours ago, the moist sand does not fly up in the wind.
It's a rain of grace.

砂の道
Window lake
Four-wheel drive vehicles run fast so as to enjoy rough roads.
"Atsuko Kobayashi" who holds the steering wheel is good at driving.
She finally walks another 1km of sandy road when she thinks she has arrived.
The steep uphill sand is very difficult to walk because your feet are caught in the sand.
Lake Wabby can be seen at the bottom right of the top of the sand blow.
