Canoe on Flathead Lake

Thanksgiving is over. A snow storm decended on the northwest with winter storm warnings, bad roads and all fo that. I was thinking,.. good time to go out on the canoe.. The white spots are snowflakes caught by my flash. not going to let a little snow keep me off of the lake.

Here's a picture of Chief Cliff in the winter mist.

Good thing I don't have a cedar strip canoe,.. I need to be able to run the thing up on the rocks.

Wow, does the snow ever add a different element there... that's gorgeous! I can't imagine canoeing in the winter... not here anyway...

Holy cow that is beautiful. Truly. My folks live facing that cliff. It's great you got the boat out.

It was really a nice canoe ride in the snow like that.

That's a nice little valley back there. I have a lot of memories there. I ride my bike to Lake Mary Ronan quite a bit in the summer. The traffic has changed quite a bit over the years though.

Yes, and then you have to ride past the dump.... which is expanding.

It's really too bad about the dump. I guess they couldn't work out a deal with the Tribe at the present location above Elmo. I'm not very happy about that.

The traffic on the Lake Mary Ronan road is already too much and too fast the way it is.
