Emerald Lake is a stunning alpine lake located in Yoho National Park, BC, Canada. As its name suggests, Emerald Lake is known for its mesmerizing emerald-green waters. The color is a result of light reflecting off limestone deposits and glacial silt suspended in the water, creating a vivid and enchanting hue.
