Portage Reflection

In a fairly standard winter, Portage lake would be frozen solid. As other pictures in this website show, I have walked across this lake, all the way out to the glacier, 3 miles in the distance. 2 winters after my frozen walk, almost to the day, there is barely ice around the edge of the lake. Some winters are warmer than others, and some are colder!
