Icebergs are breaking off and circling around in the water trapped by ice. The roar of the river is completely muffled, so all you hear is a soft mumble coming from the open patches.

I didn't see any fish in the water that I could see, so they must be under the ice. That yellowness is water on top of the ice, and tonight it will freeze, making the ice thicker until the next warm day.

The only animal tracks in the snow are tree squirrels and a coyote or large dog, no fox, no deer, no mountain lion.
Here is a fish picture, taken in the summer. It is a brown trout.

the run offs from the mountains. The brown trout is so pretty.
