I don't have any winter shots, but I look forward to seeing everyone's each month.

Caribou Lake, the one next to Clearwater. January 2013.

Duncan Lake January 3, 2015. My son and four of his friends all of them are 20 years old. Taken just after the 12-inch snow fall and just before the -18 temperature. All survived the 3-day trip.

Last Winter was tough on deer in the far north.....but this one looks healthy
