Passing around the north shore of my camp lake I followed the main stream from one lakelet to another.

绕过营地湖的北岸， 我沿着主流从一个小湖流向另一个小湖。

Some of these unfortunate lakelets are not clear of ice and snow until near the end of summer.

这些不幸的小湖中的一些直到夏末才清除冰雪。

Passing round the north shore of my camp lake I followed the central stream past many cascades from lakelet to lakelet.

绕过我营地湖的北岸， 我沿着中央溪流经过从一个小湖到另一个小湖的许多小瀑布。

It is claimed by a Frenchman, who has fenced and locked it, placed a boat on the lakelet and seats on the mossy bank under the maple trees, and charges a dollar admission fee.

一个法国人声称拥有它，他用栅栏围起来并锁上了它，在小湖上放了一艘船，在枫树下长满苔藓的河岸上放了几个座位，并收取一美元的入场费。

Tracing the stream back to the last of its chain of lakelets, I noticed a deposit of fine gray mud on the bottom except where the force of the entering current had prevented its settling.

沿着溪流追溯到它的最后一个小湖链，我注意到底部有一层灰色的细泥沉积物，除了进入水流的力量阻止它沉降的地方。

The lakelets, which a few miles down the valley were so richly embroidered with flowery meadows, had here, at an elevation of 10,000 feet, only small brown mats of carex, leaving bare rocks around more than half their shores.

沿着山谷向下几英里处的小湖上长满了繁花似锦的草地，而在海拔 10,000 英尺的地方，这里只有棕色的苔藓小垫，一半以上的湖岸周围都是光秃秃的岩石。

This is a charming little lakelet of unknown depth, never yet stirred by a breeze, and its eternal calm excites the imagination even more profoundly than the silvery lakes of the glaciers rimmed with meadows and snow and reflecting sublime mountains.

这是一个未知深度的迷人小湖，从未被微风吹过，它永恒的平静比冰川的银色湖泊更能激发人们的想象力，湖边是草地和雪，倒映着壮丽的山脉。
