Rem - what part of the Snake is that? I haven't been getting over to the Steck Park stretch like I used to, but I've never seen it freeze up so smooth like that. Usually, there, it's all jammed up with pressure ridges by now.


That's upstream of Brownleee Dam, on the 40 something mile Snake River Road between Huntington and Richland.


That explains it. Little surface current there. I've never driven that road in winter. Just done the Council/Kleinshmidt/Huntington loop in summer/fall.


Lunatic fringe....we all know you're out there.
