Last week we had a short reprieve from the bitter cold temperatures, but it didn't last long as the polar vortex swung our way again this week. It isn't even the end of January, yet this is already feeling like the longest winter ever.
We headed to Niagara Falls last weekend for a hockey tournament. Despite the fact that it's definitely more of a summer destination, there were plenty of tourists braving the cold wind with their cameras. It was incredible to see the falls flowing while the river below was almost completely frozen over.
The mist generated by the falls created a layer of ice on everything.
A little hockey, a little sight seeing, a lot of winter.
Thank you for featuring me!
Love your photos! I've never been to the Falls in winter. I hope you all had fun at the tournament!
ReplyDeleteWe went to Niagara Falls this past summer. It is really cool to see these photos from winter - I wondered what it would be like. Thanks for transporting me there without me having to brave the cold!
ReplyDeleteI LOVE Niagara Falls. It's one of my special places. I've never been there in the winter, though.
ReplyDeleteDon't be mad at me..because this winter is the longest ever..but I don't get to complain. I'm in Florida right now for a week and it's sunny and 70 here. And the sunset is an hour later than at home! Oh, happy day.
Beautiful pictures! I've always wanted to go there. My youth group went a few years ago (when I was still a youth), but I couldn't go because of work. :/ Someday... Someday.

Awesome pictures. I visited here when I was 12 or 13 during the summer. It was the first time I'd ever seen a waterfall (we don't have them here--too flat). Mesmerizing!
ReplyDeleteOh wow, beautiful pictures. I need some snow now :)
ReplyDeleteHi what beautiful photos.

Gorgeous photos! Snow and cold doesn't seem so bad when it looks so pretty. Thanks for linking up to Active Mama!
ReplyDeleteWow. I think I like the falls frozen, it looks like a different place that is for sure.
ReplyDeleteMy family and I love Niagra Falls. My in-laws live not too far from there. We just discovered the nearby outlet mall on our last visit and managed to sneak in a visit over the Christmas break. I'm joining you from Wordless Wednesday and am now following via Google. Come for a visit to Threads in the Nest when you have time.
ReplyDeleteWow! That is stunning -- I know it might not feel good but it does look beautiful!

ReplyDeleteThose photos are amazing, I have only ever seen sunshiny pictures of the Niagara Falls. You're lucky to live so close! Love your blog - will be back for more random scraps soon :)
ReplyDeleteHi from the other side of the pond! :D I'm Marcia from Blogitudes.com. I grew up in Niagara Falls, NY and I live just 20 minutes from there to this day. :) Your pictures are amazing and this is an awesome post! I posted a similar piece a few weeks ago when the Falls first froze and was all over the local news. It's an amazing sight seeing them this way. Thanks so much for sharing your personal pictures of our frozen wonder. They're absolutely beautiful!
ReplyDeleteThose are so cool! I love the photos of waterfalls that freeze! So pretty! Thanks for sharing with Time for Mom!
ReplyDeleteOooh those pictures of Niagara Falls are fabulous! I can't imagine being there in the winter. I need to get back over there, it's been too long since I've been there. Hockey is a great sport- looks like the teams were having a good time!
ReplyDeleteOH MY. Those are incredible photos. I would love to go to Niagara Falls, those pictures are hauntingly beautiful!
ReplyDeleteYour pictures are beautiful! I've only been to Niagara Falls in the summertime.
ReplyDeleteAnd I was speechless seeing the falls in the summer time, I can't believe it's 11 years since I visited my family in Canada, I would move there to live in a heartbeat. Amazing photo's of the falls. Hope your team won! #PoCoLo
ReplyDeleteAwesome photos but so, so cold! :)
ReplyDeleteI've only been to niagara falls once, in the summer, but it looks awesome in the winter too! Thanks for linking up with Photography Friday! :)
ReplyDeleteStopping by from photography friday. The falls look amazing in winter. It is still on my to do list, but I know I will go someday soon. Seeing the frozen waters makes me appreciate the heat here in Buenos Aires. I am a bit of a summer chaser.
ReplyDeleteOh wow!! Love the photos. I know the winter in your area has been too long and as it is, really cold. Niagara Falls -- I'd like to add that to my wishlist. It looks very sublime and massive!
ReplyDeleteI'm visiting from #LOBS. Great weekend to you! :)
