Gorge Ice Celebrations

The thaw is nearly complete after plenty of frozen stuff, but nothing compared to the great Gorge ice event of 2012. None the less, the latest ice cube installments offered a thrill for us seekers of some Gorge slippery chills.

Great pics! I love all the various ice formations popping up all over the site this past week. Thanks for sharing.

Great pictures, especially the falls . Nice rime-covered trees too.

I don't usually go often to see the waterfalls, but when it freezes over like this, imho it's one of the most interesting sights in nature.

Often do I wonder why people flee such a spectacular time of year such this in the Gorge.... when mother nature puts on such an awesome show like no other.
