Ice Fractures

As the Lake freezes - near the shore it will bear your weight already and we saw some tracks (probably 4 wheelers) that have been out on the ice already. I'm much too afraid for that though.

The Ice Fractures are pretty amazing 'though...

And it's a good visual way to teach plate tectonics...

It was minus 8 F this morning so it won't be long 'til it's frozen pretty solid...

  4. This is so amazing. Beautiful photos. I don’t live in a part of the world where our lakes freeze over in fact if we have any water in our lakes at all it’s pretty amazing site.
