We saw this coyote walking on the side of the causeway when we were driving out to the island. It was pretty fun to see him up close, and it was pretty cool seeing him walk on the ice!
You would never guess from these pictures that at the base of the mountains in the background are Salt Lake City and Bountiful!
Some parts of the ice didn't look very thick, and I half expected to see him fall through the ice! But, he must have known what he was doing because he never did!
A view on the island! Can you spot the deer?
Another view that makes you feel miles away from everything! This spot always makes me think of pirate ships sailing into the harbor!
The kids were actually looking at Antelope and Buffalo across the valley.
Another view.
This was a fox or coyote on the top of a ridge. Just to the left you can see the hiking trail.
On the causeway out to the island, the lake had frozen over, and then pushed these ice sheets onto the shore. Of course we had to get out and take a closer look! It was really an amazing site, and you can see from the next picture how big these pieces of ice really were!
Rob holding one of the ice sheets next to Isaac! Antelope Island has become our mini Yellowstone! It is nice to have a place to get away to!
