This photo was taken at one of our labs at Stone Valley while walking along the trail. The trail is very scenic and runs just alongside the Raquette River. On this particular Wednesday afternoon, the snow was falling heavily and the entire trail was covered with a fresh foot-high layer of white snow. This area connects the Adirondack Mountains with the St. Lawrence Lowlands. The trail deviates in elevation and highlights some of the more aggressive parts of the Raquette River. As you can see in the photo, there are some small waterfalls that that were formed from different types of rocks being eroded differently. What I find most interesting about this photo are the thick layers of ice that overhang the river. Overall, this is a very scenic photo and reflects the tranquil, yet still aggressive nature of the snowfall on this particular day.
