Deer drinking fromThe Chewuch River.

 

The deer come to the river to sleep at night. 

Mule deer. Very large deer. 

Methow Valley

Snow Country

It's cold here! 

Colder than in Yellowstone where snow is dry, powdery,

 and yet altitude is almost painful there, dryness is so noticeable.

Here frost forms over night even if theres no snow, and it clings to trees like this
becoming  quintessentially
 frozen, and beautiful against a blue sky in particular.

Mule deer, my favorite kind of deer has big ears!

I love icicles, in my home in PA they hung to the ground, 

were huge, and clear , and shortly used as weapons, very shortly. ^^

 It's beautiful here. But I have but gotten many photos.

Winthrop Washington. Snow country.

Notice there are deer amongst the horses. 

They are mule deer, very large, with big furry ears.

 Beautiful creatures.
