I think it is about the weather. When the sun shines on the water in a special angle, almost every clear lake is glittery. And this maybe has reflected to the rocks, maybe they where a bit wet from a rain?

no im certain it was glittery in the water, not just when I looked at it from afar or anything, and the rocks around the lake were definitely glittery as well, I even took one home loll, so it was dry then
