Sure Sign of Winter



This is the sure sign of winter in Red Lake for those of you who wonder what Forestry Point looks like in the winter (note the tower in the backgroud). This road originates at the landing and passes through Sunset Bay. The ice road network connects the towns cutting the drive from Cochenour to Red Lake to 8 minutes. The ice road network also connect to cabins, mine drilling sites and the occassional ice fishing hut.....

Ice road are now also in place for communities and mine sites farther north - ever watch "Ice Road Truckers". Maybe there will be a Red Lake version in the works! Who knows!
