May 16, Snow is gone

I went down and checked, the snow is gone on the bank of the river. The snow in this picture is no longer there. The Yukon River is still frozen over though. I was told that the ice melts from below, caused by the water rushing by it. The sun melts the top too.

Some snowmobilers are still riding on the river but I was talking to one fellow whe felt it was dangerous at this stage. You need to stay by the side if you do ride. The guy I saw was riding in the middle of the River.
