Snowy Sunny Morning On Greenbelt
Vincent J. Fortunato • April 7, 2020
Mountains and rivers
Enlightened by the sunshine
Lightly touched by snow
Taken from my iPhone while on a bike ride along the Boise Greenbelt back in February. This is a view of the Boise River facing east near Lucky Peak Reservoir. Just like today’s unsettled times, the weather that morning was quite unsettled. When we started the ride, it was sunny and clear, but as we neared the reservoir, we encountered lake effect snow squalls while the sun began to disappear behind the clouds.
