This was the scene at the cabin in Marble. The river is icing over and creating pools. In front of the house it was 4 feet down when we arrived and then after two 13 degree days it rose to 1 foot down. That makes it a lot easier to get water since we have to get it from the river when we go up in winter. As usual we snow shoed in dragging a toboggan full of food etc. Mostly we sat around the wood stove but I did cook a goose which smelled wonderful but had very little meat on it. It was very peaceful to do nothing but gaze at the snow for a few days. Any longer and I'd go stir crazy.
