Wintery View Of Niagara Falls

The awesome power and spectacular views of Niagara Falls are unmatched in their ability to forge a lasting mental image that stays with you forever. Niagara's precipice is one of the few places on the face of the earth where all of your senses are maxed out at the same time!

If you have ever visited Niagara Falls, you no doubt remember the sight of the enormous cascading wall of water, the deafening roar, the feeling of the fine mist on your skin and the taste and smell of the misty air. A Niagara vacation simply cannot be described in a way that does it justice.

Today's picture features a wintery view of the horseshoe-shaped Canadian side of Niagara Falls - the most photographed waterfall in the world. As you can see, the air is thick with the ever-present mist and a blanket of snow covers everything except for the water itself. Even the river freezes up during the occasional extra-harsh winter, forming a thick, hard crust over the rushing water! It really makes for quite a sight!

Most people visit Niagara Falls in the summertime, but the magic of Niagara is all the more special during the winter...if you don't mind braving the cold temperatures and deep snows of the northern New York / Ontario region. One thing is certain: If you visit Niagara Falls during winter, the experience will stay with you for the rest of your life!
