Frozen Cascade
COLO09D-132
December 31, 2009
Though this was a very mild winter by any standards (even the lax ones of North Carolina), this week winter officially ended, and we heralded in spring post-equinox. So, to send winter off for another term, this image commemorates some really cold weather. In Colorado, at the end of 2009 we were hiking along the
Horsetooth Falls trail, and found the eponymous waterfall there, but it was frozen over for the season. It was graceful and beautiful, suspended animation waiting for the spring thaw to let the water carry on its tumultuous course, splashing down to the canyon below. And now, spring has come. Enjoy.
