View of the Lake

An image of a large blue-gray lake with trees and mountains reflected on the surface of the water.
The lake has small ripples on the surface of the water. A bridge is at the far end of the lake. The landscape surrounding the left side of the lake is flat, with tall trees growing in the distance. On the right side is a large mountain.

Lakes are all different sizes-- but this one is huge! It looks like a big round bowl in the ground. It’s filled with water, but where does the lake get all of this water from? Most lakes get their water from a stream nearby that flows into it!
