It was hovering right around freezing when I took those.  It was down to 
about -5C in the mornings when we would get to the valley from the motel we 
were staying in, and maybe reach freezing before dropping again.

Housekeeping is the name given to a place where there are many three walled 
structures that you can rent out to stay there in the summer time.  They 
have a tarp for a roof which is taken down in the fall and then put back up 
again in late spring.  The bare necessities.  Stayed in one just after we 
were married.  Maybe a hundred or so units.

Thanks for looking.

Yes Aram, the trees do look very delicate with the snow on them. What was
the temperature, and does the river ever freeze over? I must say
Housekeeping is a peculiar name for a place.
