It is the smoke from a forest fire. A helicopter had been flying regularly but not constantly with something in its bucket to put on the fire. It must have been some sort of fire retardant, maybe water but they were not dragging the lake as the helicopter was flying the length of the lake to land after each trip.
The smoke was a lot more red when we first went so I don't know if the change meant that the fire had been reduced but it would have made a better photo.
The next morning when we checked out of our hotel, there was a group of fire fighters leaving. They must have been working on that fire.
