Kemensah Trails- Lake Views

 Kemensah Trails- Lake Views

The MTB trails in Kemensah can lead to the shores of the Klang Gates Catchment Lake. These series of photos highlights the views from the side of the huge lake formed by the Klang Gates Dam in  Kemensah.
Photo 1 : Lake view - Date: May 2012




Photo 1 is a favourite shot of the lake. The water surface is so still that the picture can be viewed upside down




The lake as can be seen in Photo 2 is huge.

Photo 3 : Panoramic view of the lake shore. Date: 2011




Photo 3 is a wide panoramic view of the lake taken from the same location taken on a different date with different natural lighting


Photo 4: Date: 2011
Photo 4 is a shot showing the opposite shore of the lake taken from the same location as Photo 1 but on a different day. This time it was cloudy and the lake surface is not as still as the wind was picking up.


Photo 5 The stillness is so serene...
Photo 6 ...one can sit here and contemplate



















Photo 7  Fancy a boat ride? Date: May 2012



Photo 7  shows an overturned boat in the background. We also picked up a homemade oar on the ground.


Photo 8  Date: June 2012
Photo 8 is not taken at the same location as the earlier pictures. This was taken at another part of the lake. The location of this place is South-West of the earlier location.   A clump of sparsely spaced bamboo was growing on the lake edge. One can see the brightly reflected lake surface through the bamboo growth.

Photo 9   Date: June 2012
Photo 9 is taken at the same location as Photo 8.  It was taken at a clearing to the left of the bamboo growth.
