Wisconsin River thaw

Wisconsin River thaw

Wisconsin Rapids, Wisconsin. 2017

The River is snow covered in early March.

.

The paper mill switcher GMTX 200 comes in to view the next day, and a sliver of channel appears.

.

The thaw is showing.

.

More thawing on a sunny day

.

The next day the River is open, with help from the wind.

.

Although, a cold snap into the single digits freezes it over with a skin of ice in mid-March.

.

And in a few days the thaw is on again.
