It is very unique to see one in the snow. Excellent image nice composition and I like to see that the snow has texture.

I love seeing this guy in the snow. The overall setting is beautiful. Was this a recent trip to Barrow or the one about 8 years ago? Well done with this one....and I feel cooler already.

Very nice EJ. I tried getting one of these in/on snow while I was up there but had no luck.
