About ten minutes later, Zeng Gong had to slow down, the zigzag Qinglian River is formed by the confluence of many rivers in the ranch, and it is also the only river that Qinglian Ranch has to contact with the outside world, it is a small tributary of the Huangshi River, because of the rich geothermal resources of the pasture, the Qinglian River, which flows all year round, has no possibility of freezing.

Zeng Gong and the area they want to pass through is the place where the Qinglian River flows the most, and many rivers have formed a small sandbar because of the confluence, which are scattered on the river surface, and a lot of simple wooden bridges have been built on it in order to connect smoothly, and the Douglas Pines in the pasture are very strong and durable.

"Third child, you're really good here. Looking at the turbulent river outside the car window, the beautiful Liao Fan, where many rivers converge, praised sincerely, and Lu Xin, who was sitting next to him, also continued to echo.

Liao Fan is right, although it is already the middle of winter, the best season has already been missed, and the green grass has already turned yellow, making the whole Montana more rough and unruly, but the criss-crossing rivers, the small sandbanks and rough wooden bridges here still have a different charm, and the unrestrained beauty has been perfectly interpreted here.

"Hehe, it's okay. Zeng Gong smiled noncommittally, and did not deny Liao Fan's statement, although the scenery here is good in his mind, it is still a small microcosm of the entire Qinglian Ranch, and it doesn't represent anything at all, and the scenery of Yunmengze and the North Styx Sea is not different from here.

This time, Zeng Gong didn't want to take Zeng Gong to the North Styx Sea, knowing that he had been coveting his British Columbian spotted abalone on the table, especially now that the number in the ranch was not large. I can't let him succeed, and now I can go to a place that is unique to high-latitude and high-altitude ice-forming lakes.

Glacial lakes are lakes formed by glacial erosion and moraine formation of water in depressions. These include glacial lakes and moraine lakes. It is mostly distributed in the ancient glacial area. Appears in groups and comes in a variety of shapes. The shores of the lake are meandering. For example, some lakes in Finland, Sweden, North America and the Tibetan Plateau.

Qinglian Ranch is located at the confluence of the Great Plains and the Rocky Mountains of North America, and the area where the alpine climate and temperate continental climate interact are not very strange for the formation of glacial lakes, after all, ancient glaciers stayed here for a short time during the glacial age.

The sky is crisp and blue, and the land of the sky is worthy of its name, and the cold wind brings the wildness unique to the American West, but the almost aimless driving for nearly half an hour is also a boring thing.

"Holy. Third child, I know that your ranch is very large, but don't take us around in circles, or let's go to the North Styx Sea to have a look?" Liao Fan said impatiently with his eyebrows twisted, still thinking about the BC spotted abalone in his heart.

"Hehe, boss, don't worry, we'll be there soon, do you see those mountains in front of you, our destination is there. Zeng Gong pointed to the mountains in front of him and said with a smile.

Liao Fan followed Zeng Gong's guidance and looked, and sure enough, there was a mountain range in front of him, intermittently connected with the main vein of the Rocky Mountains in the distance. Stretching from the Rocky Mountains to the Qinglian Ranch, Zeng Gong called them the Qinglian Mountains, anyway, he took the name in his own ranch by the way, and no one came to investigate whether it was not.

The Qinglian Mountains are not endless. Rather, it is intermittently widely distributed against the majestic background of the Rocky Mountains, and from a distance, it looks like a child snuggled in its mother's arms, delicate and small. The low summit even leaves just the right amount of snow to leave a trail of snow, which is the mark of a blizzard.

Dense spruce trees stretch from the summit to the base. It was replaced by a splash of jumping red, which formed a wave of water in the cold north wind. Spreading towards us, the faint blue light of the blue water rising over the mountain peaks kept beating.

"What is that place?" Liao Fan looked into the distance suspiciously, his eyes faintly flashing with excitement, but they were quickly covered up by confusion.

"Hehe, it's just a glacial lake, and there are a few sea trace lakes, this is one of the most beautiful places in Qinglian Ranch in winter. Zeng Gong said lightly, with a hint of pride in his faint expression.

After speaking, Zeng Gong was silent, and concentrated on driving the F150 under the seat, and the powerful performance reached the destination in about ten minutes, and after crossing the last hill, the first thing that caught his eye was a red grass that stretched out, and the fiery red seemed to be a beating flame against the background of the snow.

Blue sky and white clouds, snow-capped mountains, red meadows, and occasionally a few Douglas pines are particularly tempting and intoxicating, and the strong red color is like a jar of old wine that is getting mellower and mellower for a long time, and people can't help but be intoxicated, and their steps can't help but become staggering, until a long and narrow lake in front of them, with a cold and dry wind blowing across their cheeks, they are shocked and wake up in intoxication.

The mountains of the Qinglian Mountains are not towering and majestic, with a unique delicateness, with white snow, still full of life, scattered in the aftermath of the Rocky Mountains, a narrow glacial lake will be a low snow-capped mountain almost completely surrounded, only the west side of the mountain has an exit.

However, under the shade of the red meadows, the bubbling stream is slowly flowing into the next lake, and the clear water of the lake makes the bottom of the lake seem to be free from the outside world, and a few small sturgeons are fleeing in panic under the crazy pursuit of North American pike, and there is no time to pay attention to Zeng Gong and other uninvited guests.

"Ding-dong, ding-dong. From time to time, there are a few clear dripping sounds, following the prestige to the side of the snow-capped mountain is a steep cliff with an angle of almost 90 degrees, a huge glacier seems to be a unique cornice in ancient Chinese architecture, on the cliff more than the crowd, until extending to the sky above the lake, the crystal clear water droplets shoot out colorful under the sunshine, at the end of the eaves glacier leisurely dripping on the surface of the lake, with a circle of wonderful ripples.

Looking along the eaves glacier, faintly flooding the top of the mountain, Zeng Gong knew that it was a small glacial lake that would expand or shrink its sphere of influence as the seasons changed. The mountain was an extinct volcano that was once an extinct volcano, and the Ice Age filled the crater with ancient glaciers.

The glacier lake is crystal clear, beautiful like a whole piece of colorless jadeite carving, the clear lake water makes the sun shine lightly on the bottom of the lake, with the breeze gently blowing, the rippling lake immediately becomes gorgeous and colorful, the crystal glacier around the lake and the glacier at the bottom of the lake reflect each other, the fantastic light continues to change with the ripples of the lake, red orange, yellow, green, blue, purple, dizzying, suffocating.

"It's beautiful. Lu Xin looked at the icy lake in front of her intoxicated, beautiful things always make women intoxicated inadvertently, not to mention that she is truly beautiful.

"Hehe, sister-in-law, this is the Yue'er Sea, and you can really experience her beauty by overlooking it from the mountain. Zeng Gong smiled proudly, the ice-eroded lakes here are a unique scenery of Qinglian Ranch.

"Then what are you waiting for, hurry up and lead the way." Liao Fan waved his hand and pointed to the snow-capped mountain in front of him and asked Zeng Gong to lead the way, just like a high-spirited general.

Zeng Gong smiled silently, but got out of the car and rummaged in the back bucket of the F150, the snow mountain looks like it is not easy to climb up, and professional mountaineering tools are needed. (To be continued......)
