Great photos Peter. During my first 2 years working for the Forest Service as a rookie, the Ranger put me and one other on the trail crew to clear out down trees across major trails in the district. The last trail we cleared had to be done before July 4th weekend. We camped at the bottom of the trail and had horses to pack our saws and axes. One afternoon we ran out of water and I swished away the elk turds on a pond just like the one in your picture, and drank a gallon of the best water I've ever tasted. Never got sick. The next day we took more water and as we went around a big snow drift, there was a beer can sticking out. I dug and found a 6 pack of Coors still good, and cold. Some fall hunters must have left it. Me and my partner had a great time the rest of the afternoon. Fun memories.
