On the previous day, Sue needed some craft supplies from the town of Almonte (silent e at the end), about 10 minutes north of us. While she went into the store, I crossed over to the falls to snap some quick pics, Even though it wasn't quite as cold (as -45) on that day, the wind was strong and I just about perished (he said without a hint of exaggeration).
So the pics are hurried, but I thought you might like to see them anyway. Keep in mind that the winter has been relatively mild, and I have seen much more of an ice buildup in other years.

The subsequent photos are from about the same spot as the one above but with the camera zooming and focusing on different spots. It probably would have been good to have had my longer lens on this day.
Beautiful in its icy wonder. Burrr. Stay warm.
