USA - New York - Lake Minnewaska
NEW PALTZ, NEW YORK
A dramatic autumn view of Lake Minnewaska located in the Minnewaska State Park Preserve on the Shawagunk Mountain ridge. The lake is a breathtaking and scenic area to enjoy boating, scuba diving and swimming.

This is from Wikipedia : The Minnewaska State Park Preserve is a 21,106 acre (8,541 ha) preserve located on the Shawangunk Ridge in New York on US 44/NY 55, five miles (8 km) east of New York State Route 299. The park is managed by the Palisades Interstate Park Commission. It is primarily used for picnicking, hiking, mountain biking, snowshoeing and swimming. There are outstanding views of the nearby Catskill Mountains. There are three sky lakes within the Park Preserve: Lake Minnewaska, Lake Awosting, and Mud Pond. Lake Minnewaska is roughly a mile long by a quarter-mile at its widest point. Lake Awosting is roughly twice as large.
