Last weekend, my family and I took a small vacation up north in North Conway, a beautiful place. Last year, we took many trips to this town under the mountains, and we were eager to return. On the way to the hotel, we stopped at a stunningly beautiful place. Castles made of ice were looming up everywhere, with neon lights inside them. It was a fabulous sight. Although these castles were not natural occurrences, the ice was incredible to look at. The next morning, we decided to go snowshoeing up a small mountain called Mt. Willard. The way up was freezing (I didn’t have warm gloves) and difficult, but the view was worth the trouble. On the sides of the trail there were many animal tracks to be identified. I saw many rabbit tracks and a few coyote tracks, and we even stumbled upon the home of a rabbit with tracks leading up to it. You never know what you will find in a deep wood where few humans venture. It is a magical thing to explore such a quiet, wild place.

These pictures are fabulous! But what made the ice, if it was not a natural occurrence?!

The ice castles are man-made by ice sculptors. It's located in Lincoln, NH, and hosted by the Hobo Railroad. Here is their website: www.icecastles.com
