Frozen Falls

Isn’t our natural world magnificent? It’s amazing to see that green tint in the water, and that hue certainly contributes to how cold it looks. It’s cold here in NWT, but that somehow looks colder!

After all the recent nasty weather, I hope that wherever you are, you are warm and comfortable.

Happy Wednesday. 🙂

Snow Road

Up here, we drive across frozen lakes. Temporary roads are created, ploughed and come complete with signs. There is a government department in charge of these winter roads, as they are called.

Below is a photo taken from one of our drives on the Yellowknife – Dettah road.

Yellowknife – Dettah winter road.

Using these roads is an interesting northern experience that can’t be duplicated in most other places in the world.

If you’re interested, here’s a winter road website.
