on the first day of the year
we walked
on frozen water
this narrow canyon
is actually a creek
under this snow
is ice
and under the ice
is flowing water
we could hear it singing
as it wandered downstream
our journey took us
to frozen waterfalls
with trees high above
the waterfalls had space to walk behind them
a bit magical to experience
water still flowed here and there
adding to the artful forms of ice
after shared snacks and drinks
we turned and wandered back
through the crevice
across another creek
up through a snowy forest
and
to our cars
a wonderful way to begin
2017

ReplyDeleteWonderful images of the frozen waterfall, Tammie!
ReplyDeleteYou're talking seriously cold and some hard core walking! Makes my puny little ditch walk look even punier! But this is totally magnificent. I would be filled with awe. And very cold.
ReplyDeleteWhat a sight, a wonderful first walk of the year, I bet you enjoyed getting back to warmth after it to thaw out! Thanks as always for sharing your beautiful and breath taking adventures!
ReplyDeleteOh Tammie, you have such wonderful extremes,summer and winter. The frozen waterfall is spectacular.

Happy New Year!
