We spent some time in Kincaid Park yesterday enjoying the sunshine, relatively mild temperature and barely there breeze on a miles-long walk through the trees. Spring seems near despite the amount of white stuff still on the ground. Many cross-country skiers and a few sledding families took full advantage of both a beautiful day and the lingering snowpack.
The bright light of the day highlighted some ice crystals on a wooden railing and surface hoar frost on trampled snow underfoot. The top photo reminds me a bit of rock candy. The one below could almost be an aerial view of a frosty forest landscape complete with hills and ravines. (Or maybe that's just how my mind works.)
Lovely day overall. While I'm eager for spring to arrive in full, I will continue to enjoy our first Alaskan winter while it lasts.
