This image was from a cold hike to Silver Falls State Park. The season had not yet given us any snow, but it was certainly cold enough for some decent ice.

The hike down into the canyon is tricky because everything is frozen. The mist from the falls freezes the trail and so without ice-cleats its almost impossible to get here. This was shot on a tripod to get the water blur. It looked like some kind of comedy show getting the tripod set up. See, the tripod slides just like we do when its on ice. What good is a tripod that moves all over? So, the location of the camera was not really a choice, it was dictated by where the legs had something to lean against! Also, sadly, you had to shoot the image where idiots could not get to the ice. All icicles within reach were broken off. :(
