Crystal Shores

















It's early winter and we already have some awesome ice on the north shore of Lake Superior!  Most of the shoreline is devoid of any kind of cool ice formations but some places, like the area shown here, are completely covered in ice.  We've had a bit of wind lately and that combined with the cold temperatures means that the wave spray has been freezing and coating every inch of vegetation along the shore.  Of course, this only happens in areas where the waves tend to crash hard into shore and send spray flying into the air.  I sure hope this is a sign of great ice conditions to come for the remainder of this winter season!
