I was up in the mountains over the weekend at an area of the Sierras that have loads of mountain lakes, almost at every turn.

We went to this one mountain lake that has quite a big sandy beach and a shoreline that has a very gradual depression into the lake so that you can walk out pretty far before getting too deep.

Upon arriving I saw a guy, probably in his mid thirties at the beach in his hiking gear, which is pretty common - being in the mountains. He was wearing hiking pants, t-shirt and a green Under Armor long sleeve tech pullover. He was with a bunch of friends some of who were in the water - in typical swim wear. It looked like him and his girlfriend arrived later than the rest of them, after going on a hike in the mountains.

As most of their friends were already in the water, the guy and his girlfriend stood on the shore for awhile. After a little bit the girlfriend dressed in leggings and t-shirt went into the water to join the friends. The guy on the other hand, was a bit more reluctant. You can tell he wasn't planning on getting wet.

But, as these settings tend to encourage, he rolled up his hiking pants to his knees and went into the water up to his ankles. He hung out there for quite some time watching his friends in the water. Gradually the water started to get his rolled up hiking pants wet...he then rolled them up further - preventing getting wet.

His friends had a blow-up raft in the water that they were playing with. One of the guys lost control of it and it started to wash ashore, near the guy standing ankle deep in the water. The guy went up to it and started to move it back out into the lake where everyone was. In doing so, we got the bottom of his rolled up pants wet.

One of his friends came up to him, looked like encouraging him to come into the water but the guy resisted. But moments later, he started to play around with the raft...looked like he was trying to sit on it with out getting wet. But after his first attempt, he sat on the raft and water gushed into his hiking pants and the bottom of his long sleeve pullover. He relaxed on the raft and just floated around a bit.

It was amazing seeing him fully clothed sitting on the raft, knowing that his backside was completely soaked in the water.

In floating around for a bit, he stepped off the raft, but was in a much deeper portion of the lake. He immediately sank belly deep, completely soaking the bottom of his pullover and his hiking pants.

Now that he was mostly wet, he spent the rest of the evening waist/belly deep in the water playing with his friends - throwing a ball back and forth. He didn't even roll up his long sleeve shirt, just left it getting soaked whenever he waded around the water.

After about 30 minutes of playing in the water, everyone got out. The guy's pullover was completely soaked, along with his under shirt and hiking pants. Once he got out of the water, he took off his shirts and you could see the black band of his underwear poking out, completely soaked.

He went up to the restrooms and came back wearing shorts and a t-shirt, holding his soaking wet clothes...which he spread out on the backs of chairs to dry out.

It was a great sight to see, especially since he definitely had swimwear with him, but ended up going in the water fully clothed in what he was wearing.
