BREAK- UP

The Weather is changing, and break-up is starting. The Mackenzie River is still frozen in the centre, but the edges are starting to crack and loosen up. Usually break-up has happened before the May 24 weekend, but it remains to be cool later this year, so we are delayed. There still are some idiots with their skidoos, thinking they can ride the water and get into the centre of the river and ride. Idiots... that's all I have to say!!




It's really a pretty time of year! It's neat to see the thick ice starting to breakup along the edges and float down. I cannot wait until the whole area breaks up. Apparently the ice clings together as it goes down, sounding like a chandelier! The slivers of ice sparkle and the whole area lights up. I CANNOT WAIT.. I will have to keep on doing the River Report!







My new Boots.. Yep had to get a fun colour!
In the Mackenzie River!
