Icicles Above the West Fork of Oak Creek

Icicles hang above the West Fork of Oak Creek during a heavy winter storm north of Sedona, Arizona.

The quietness of the entire area increases exponentially with a storm like this. Not even the highway noise nearby can get through the snow and canyon walls of Oak Creek Canyon.
