I like this one.
Just guessing,was the picture taken at the east end of the lake where it starts to narrow down going to West Pike?


Always sleep cold style but in a tent. Did your sleeping bags get frosty on the outside?

Sorry, I seem to have written the location of this picture in the wrong section since it isn't showing. This is a picture of my sister who talked me into winter camping for the first time last year. I was getting my strength back after a chemo journey and figured I owed my sister anything after all the support she had given me! We had an AMAZING time--even with temps well below zero--and are already planning our trip this year. This picture is from the WolfTrack Classic Dog Sled Race in Ely. It was so cold I had to keep my camera in my coat between pictures--but you can see there was still lots of JOY!

Farrell's Marsh, Steilacoom, Washington. Not canoe country, but looks a lot like something you might see up in northern MN.

Enjoying these winter pics even though not a big fan of winter. IF I were to winter camp this appeals to me.
