Minnehaha Falls in winter Dec 2012

Yesterday we went to see the Minnehaha waterfalls located at the intersection of Hiawatha Avenue and Minnehaha Parkway. It was completely frozen though its just the beginning of winter. Though a danger sign warns people to stay away from the fall, there were people quite close up to the fall and so we too followed them and got some pretty good shots. The staircase leading down to the fall was full of snow and ice and pretty much slippery.
