I guess this blast of cool weather ushering in October has given me a longing for these cooler days.
But I digress...
This area forms some beautiful ice caves when the winter has been hard enough and long enough. During these just right conditions, and as the winter is coming to a close, the National Park Service will give the OK for the public to travel to these islands and observe the caves covered in ice.
If you are insane enough, you will stay out past sunset. Allowing you to capture all the 'smart' people running home before it gets too cold. When you are this far north, the sky glows orange from the dimming sun. This is nicely contrasted by the deep blue ice and snow of Lake Superior. Makes you want to sleep next to your best friend and partner to stay warm.
