Snow Shots - January A

Continuing my "Snow Shots" series, here's the first batch of January photos. First, I have two photos taken along Hwy 41 on a trip to Walmart earlier this month.

You didn't think I was going to show you pictures of Walmart shoppers, did you? It's nice to enjoy such beauty when we're just running errands. Next, Steve went through Eagle Harbor and Eagle River on the way home from the property on January 9th. He took the rest of the photos that appear in this post. Here's a shot taken in Eagle Harbor. Can you see the ice shanties on the right side of the harbor? 

He turned around after taking that last photo and captured these two deer having a snack.

Stopping at Great Sand Bay, he shot the last bit of the setting sun. 

Jacob's Falls is the subject of the next two photos. I'm surprised he found any water flowing.

As he came into Eagle River, he encountered a traffic jam.

I love the glowing eyes! This is where the deer "yard up" for the winter. The next shot shows one deer that appears to be looking both ways before crossing the road (background on the right).

The deer are so used to seeing vehicles and humans during the winter months that it's almost impossible to spook them. They're a lot smarter during firearm deer season! Check back for more installments in the "Snow Shots" series.

All is well in the Keweenaw.
