...and because we know you're all curious ... there is still some serious ice out there. Not likely to melt very quickly, plus looking at the 10 day forecast they are still forecasting s n o w next week. The loons are here so we know open water will come eventually.

Firsts ....The arrival of spring up north is full of firsts: The first sighting or sound of the loons on the lake, the first day the lake is ice free, the first boat in the water; the list goes on and on. Today, April 29th, did bring the first loons (a pair) into the bay; this photo unfortunately shows them in the midst of a big, really fluffy snowfall. If the temperatures were warmer this could have been the day the lake did go ice free; but not. It's chilly and that first will likely come another day really soon.

This photo is from a holiday card we received over 20 years ago from a wonderful Burntside Lake family. We loved it then and still do. Wanted to share it with all who love this spectacular lake as much we do. Greetings of the season to all.

Quiet and so still; crispy cold . First day we can't see any open water on Burntside. Perfect scene for a December day.

October at Burntside: Always a mix of weather: from cold, gray, wet and windy; to calm + warmth with beauty that steals your heart in the silence. The beginning of the 'quiet seasons'.

Burntside: Magical in every season.

No denying that fall is here ...the colors change from daybreak til dusk. From vibrant mossy greens to oranges, yellows and reds; it's a feast for the eyes as well as the soul.

The Aurora Borealis + Cabin # 26. Monday, September 1st. A perfect photo by an employee who took the opportunity to walk down by the lake after a days work. Memories to last a lifetime.

There's a difference in the air + all around. A morning chill that quick dissipates to warm, the needles of the pine turning from vibrant green to autumn gold...even the lake seems to be settling...it's September 1st. It's undeniable that summer is ending and the season begins to change. The Cycle of Life.

Exquisite ...an extraordinary word...describes the perfect August day. Breeze off the lake, perfect for swimming, boating or just plain floating. Our gardens are wild with the more than generous rains. Savor these days ... And welcome to the lake.
