It was time for my annual search for early cold and snow on the North Shore. This year didn't offer the deep snow that last year did, but there were some beautiful smaller snowstorms. There was lots of cold weather, too, including the final night when the thermometer pushed minus twenty Fahrenheit. That morning offered up some very impressive frost smoke from the open water of Lake Superior.
Gooseberry Falls in Early Winter, Gooseberry Falls State Park near Castle Danger, Minnesota
Gooseberry Falls State Park may be the most visited park on the North Shore. The Gooseberry River drops over four falls before reaching Lake Superior. The falls may look frozen, but there's water flowing beneath all that ice.
