Atlin in the Winter
Hein and Wil de Vries website
What can we say about the winter, other than we really like it! As do many more Atlinites: for many the winter is the most attractive season to be here.
Apart from the obvious winter activities there is a serene calmness to the place that attract us mightily.
Clicking on any of the photos opens a new window with an enlargement.

But isn't it cold....?
What is cold.
The coldest temperature we have seen on our thermometer is about -38 degrees
C. These low temperatures are only here when we are under the influence
of a high pressure system which also means nice sunny days and no wind,
like as on the bottom picture. Here the lake has not frozen yet so there
is a bit of a fog hanging over the lake.
