Back Edge of Winter
At the cusp between winter and spring, snow at higher elevations has yet to melt. The creek is reduced to a trickle and the water level in Kootenay Lake is at its lowest. A brooding sky lends a sombre tone to the mountainous backdrop. As clouds part, a beam of brilliant orange sunset lights up the lacy forms of barren cottonwoods. Enjoy!
