In my travels, I did come to an end-of-the-road situation where car tracks left the road and went out onto to the frozen lake. The first three photos show the view from near the end of the road, each getting closer to the lake.
Then, I walked down to the frozen surface and took this photo of the shoreline.
Finally, I cast my view way out onto the lake where I saw a number of ice fishing huts in the distance. With no trees and with the sun behind me, there is no colour to speak of, but some of you might find the scene to be of interest as it would not be something that you see every day. Me neither. In fact, it kind of surprised me.
I have only ever seen ice-huts in documentaries about the cold country of Canada. I know they do it in Norway as well, but probably a lot further from the sea. I haven't seen it on the lakes close by!
ReplyDeleteWow. All of the photos are gorgeous!
ReplyDeleteWishing you some spring, soon.
What a stunning set of winter across the lake pictures. Living only a short distance from the upper reaches of the Father of Waters, I'm curious as to the origins of this Indian names on a lake in Canada? :)
ReplyDeleteLovely sunny pics, AC. I suspect that Frank and I will see more and more of that in our future.. hoping to settle on a lake front home soon.
ReplyDeleteLovely!
ReplyDeleteI have never seen an ice hut in real life. Come to think of it, I have only seen snow about four times in my whole life, so the ice-hut thing makes total sense.
Georgeous photos! :)
ReplyDeleteThe last one could be from Wisconsin!
A beautiful photo putting, John. And, scenes like this are why we are anxious to be where we can experience more of thie season's beauty. The sunset was worth your outing for sure.
ReplyDeleteIt is nice to have a Winter with more normal snow levels.
