Spring scenes near camp taken on Tuesday

Camp as seen from West Narrows
West Red Lake Mining Museum
Douglas Creek, Trout Bay
Enid Carlson was on her way back from Viking Island Lodge on Douglas Lake Tuesday and stopped to take these photos. Thank you so much, Enid!
Everything is frozen tight to the shore everywhere except at the mouth of Douglas Creek at the end of Trout Bay. There the current has opened up the little bay in front of the rapids. In a normal year we would be seeing a lot more signs of ice-out but at least the open water at Douglas Creek is a start.

They were taken from a snowmobile. The shot of camp was taken from the western entrance to West Narrows. This would normally be open water by this time and the fact Enid was traveling there speaks to how late the ice-out is occurring.
