I was in Alaska in 1992 as well.. but didn't get to that MIrror
Lake... The vegetation isn't right for Denali park..
Photo on puzzle taken before 1981.. The trees are clearly spruce which
puts the elevation of the lake at about 4,000 to 9,000 (it would be
lower, of course in Alaska but those big happy spruce don't grow there.
I'm thinking has to be Rocky Mountains anywhere from Northern New Mexico
up through Alberta..that is, on the Continental divide.. I looked at
bunches of named Mirror Lakes on line and nothing looked right..

There are Mirror Lakes everywhere, even in NJ. This one looks and feels like
the one in Denali NP. I have been there, but
can't readily find any image from that trip back in 1992.

I've been buying, doing and then selling the jigsaw puzzles I've done.
Mostly older Springboks . This is part of the cover of the box I just
bought and am waiting for (cribbed from sellers listing) . It is called
MIRROR LAKE and the puzzle is PZL2102 and produced in 1981 so we know
the photo ws taken earlier than that. (note glacier on mt in
distance.) Although it is named Mirror lake , after a bunch of image
searches of the many lakes called MIrror Lake in North America I
couldn't find this view - not that I didn't jsut miss it, but it
occured to me that is just Springbok describing it (scroll left to see
the whole box cover which shows more of the lake itself. ) because I
bought and did a puzzle called MOUNTAIN MAGESTY which was a classic
view of the Maroon Bells in Colorado and there are tons of matches all
over the web. but nowhere on the box did Springbok tell us that or who
took the photo. I think HAllmark bought stock photos back in the day to
produce these.
anyone recognize this? scroll left to see the whole cover shot.
