It seems like that press release the state did over the "Polar Vortex" brought in a nice amount of tourism for the falls.

I have always been wanting to go there during a nice freeze and make a gallery, but I didn't even think of it last week. Oh well. next time.

Probably my favorite photo of the American falls was of it frozen in 1911(?). It was in our hotel room when we stayed at the falls in Canada.

Matt, you should definitely do a frozen gallery. Especially since you like the cold so much!

Looks fun. Does anyone know if you can get down to the old factory or power plant on the Canadian side down stream from the falls?

This still isn't possible, is it? I wondered this a lot of times too.
