Winter at 10,000ft.

Is colder then a witch's tit in a brass bra, i knew it was gonna be cold though. driving up the snow covered dirt road there were a few times i was wondering if i was even gonna make it due to the amount of snow. i did finally make it and when i got out of the jeep there wasn't  a hint of wind and it was reasonably warm and sunny. once i made the short walk through the trees to the lake, the wind made it's presence felt. the lake had a decent amount of ice on it so i was only able to fish one side of it and only about 1/2 of that. i only mustered a couple of colored up brookies, did have a few other nice fish follow but not commit. i fished until my hands were freezing agony and called it a day.
