Here's some recent pics of winter in the northern part of the province of Saskatchewan.
Almost 9:00 Am, sunrise soon

Here's an open area near a muskeg showing the tracks of ptarmigan

More ptarmigan sign at the edge of a lake. A spring can be seen in the centre of the pic

A closer view of the spring. The sand swirls about like macaroni boiling in a pot

Here a river is wide open despite temperatures in the minus 20's, surprising considering the current is not that strong

The moon coming up in an old burned area. This is mostly jack pine country, along with areas of black spruce

I'm not jealous this time :) as we had a good winter this year, lasted about 9 days but looked very similar to your corner of the world, if you replace the wolf tracks with those of fox that is :D...I've posted a couple of threads on this out & about forum about it :eek:


You've taken some fantastc photos there, beautiful ! :You_Rock_

In the woods if possible.
Thank you very much indeed for sharing that with us. Just those few those shots of one morning are simply wonderful, we'll just have to try to imagine what the rest of it must be like. Seen the aurorae lately?

Thanks to all for your kind words. I really like showing pictures of the places I love and am glad others enjoy them as well, just as I like seeing pics of your part of the world. Sharing what we love is what it's all about!:D


Seen the aurorae lately?

Yes, it's quite common but unfortunately I haven't taken any pics:confused:I'm really at a loss as to why not but I'll certainly try to rectify that:)
