Spring is Sprouting at Wanakita

Spring is coming to Wanakita! There's always an in between time, between winter and spring: the snow is melting, the mud is abundant and the water is too cold for activities - or still has ice in our case! Walking around Wanakita right now might look a bit ugly to some, but if you look closer, there's lots of beauty!

Ice on the lake

The famous trees growing out of the rock cliff on the Forgotten Fores Trail

Brilliant colours in some of last year's Wintergreen

Reflections of cabins in the SC field

The ice is finally breaking up on the lake!

A beaver swimming in the swamp

Last year's maple leaf clinging to a sapling

A shelf of ice over a puddle; and its reflection

A beaver lodge

Some spring melt water running over ice and branches

New buds on a tree
