Washoe Valley Wetlands ll
Icicles
Icicles over the rocks in the creek, a rare sight for me.
Smooth as Glass
Frozen Caples Lake
Bare Rock
Generally this rock mountain would be totally covered for many months with deep snow.
Ice on the Lake
Icy
This would normally be snow, not ice, but with the cold nights and no snow it is a frozen lake in the high sierra's of California.
Ice Skating Rink
This is all ice covered Caples Lake in Ca. Usually there would be snow covering the lake, not this winter.
Ice Hockey Anyone?
I don't think I would be out on this ice playing hockey, there were warning signs about the ice not being stable...duh!
Dry Winter
We are having a lack of snow and rain in the Ca. sierra's this winter.
Mountain Store
Up in the California Sierras, one of the little stores along the way to Tahoe going Highway 88.
