The striking colour of Muncho Lake is created by tiny rock
fragments scraped from the walls by glaciers and carried by
meltwater downstream to the lake. This silt flows into the
icy water where most of it sinks to the bottom. Fine
particles ground to the texture of flour remain suspended in
the lake water giving it a milky appearance. The "Rock
flour" reflects and scatters sunlight, returning mainly the
bluegreen part of the spectrum to our eyes
