Lake Superior - Two Winters

[embed]https://vimeo.com/161299931[/embed]Two winters, drastically different weather. In March, 2013 on Lake Superior, it was below 0°F. The lake was shrouded in ice and snow. The same week in 2016 the ice had all but left the lake, and little snow remained in the forests.This past March I spent a week travelling around Lake Superior. It happened to be the exact same week I had been up there in 2013. The big difference was in 2013 we had a very cold winter in the Midwest and the Great Lakes were 90% frozen over. This year was a very mild winter with less than 14% of ice coverage on the Great Lakes. I had wanted to get back up to areas I had not been too in 2013, so even with a mild winter I headed north to shoot for The Sweetwater Seas – A Documentary About North America’s Great Lakes. We have put together a short film from the trip which compares the two winters.Enjoy!RichardFor more on The Sweetwater Seas – A Documentary About North America’s Great Lakes just use the link - The Sweetwater Seas
