Picture of the Day for January 23, 2015

The warmer temperature the past week has felt nice after a cold December, but hardy winter lovers may not be as thrilled as the snow pack is shrinking. The ice layer on Lake Superior by the ice caves has also disappeared even though there was ice last week when the park rangers were out on the ice monitoring the thickness but last weekend’s winds blew and took the ice away. So now there is open water by the caves where last season 138,000 people walked on the ice to view the ice formations.
