The first two were taken January 1, 2010. For several years I have taken a hike on January 1. I considered not going for the Jan. 1, 2010 hike, because the temperature was in the single digits with wind, but went ahead with a shorter hike and stayed within about 1/4 mile of my truck.
Frozen sand ripples from when the river was higher.
Great Blue Heron tracks frozen into the sand along the river bank.
