Lochsa in Winter

Report

Account	The lochsa is often frozen over in the winter, but it can also be ice free and runnable. December 2005 was very cold and then a warm spell brought the river up, which broke the ice up and created a series of large ice dams that extended all the way down the clearwater past orofino. I took this photo from the Elk Mountain Trail bridge, on an upstream section where the ice had not broken up.
