frozen rainbow










Question: Can a rainbow ever freeze? Answer: You betcha.

Tony Gehl sent me these photos. He and his wife Ann hiked to Rainbow Falls in the Smokies last week and it was frozen solid. That doesn't happen that often.

Because the Cherokee Orchard Loop Road was closed, they had to hike an extra 1.5 miles in the snow to reach the trailhead.

Where's the dancing Leprechaun? :)

Hey troutbirder!

Not only cool photos but cold photos.

I hope you are well up there in the frozen north.

Oh, BriteCloud. Dancing leprechauns wear short pants. And it was far too cold for short pants.
