Parting Shot — 12.20.16

Spokane photographer Rika Ream traveled to Palouse Falls State Park during last weekend's bitter cold weather to marvel at the ice around the 185-foot waterfall. The scene was spectacular. Daring ice climbers dropped her jaw even farther. She captured this photo of Jess Roskelley of Spokane leading a climb in the fragile ice in the mist of the main waterfall with Scott Coldiron, who's belaying from below. "We were both wearing (kayaker's) dry suits because of the spray," Roskelley said. Rich Landers/SR Outdoors post here. (Rika Ream photo)
