A beautiful day for a ski!

Norpine Ski Trails - Cook County, MN

Today I got out and enjoyed a beautiful 15 mile ski on the Norpine Trails near Deer Yard Lake just west of Grand Marais, MN.  The Deer Yard Trails always make for nice photos and today was no different.  We're under a Winter Storm Warning for tomorrow with 6 to 10 inches of new snow possible.  I sure hope we get it... we haven't gotten any significant new snow for several weeks now.  Some new snow sure would be nice!

February Afternoon, Mt. Josephine

The culmination of a long day spent out in the woods, exploring some dramatic terrain via fat bike.  The day ended with high visual impact as some very cool clouds moved in just in time for sunset.  The last two hours of the day had magical light and great photo opportunities.  

Golden Sunset, Grand Portage Bay

Amazing winter sunset over Grand Portage Bay on the north shore of Lake Superior.  

Grand Marais Sunset

Nothing overly creative or outstanding here, just a nice sunset that really caught my eye as I was passing through town yesterday.  I shot this from the car, through my open driver's window as I was pulled over in the parking area for the Cook County Visitor's Bureau visitor center.  

Pigeon Bay Rock Arch

I love winter so it's not often that I long for the warm days of summer.  Every once in a while, though, I do.  Last night I was looking through some photos from 2009 and came across this one that I had never done anything with.  This small island is in Pigeon Bay on Lake Superior near Grand Portage, MN. It's one of my favorite places but not one that I photograph often because it's difficult to get to.  It's always a joy to see it though and last night when I came across this photo it brought a smile to my face.
