Snow covered forest along a winding Idaho river

The majesty of a forest in winter, can be doubled if you can catch a reflection. I literally stumbled across this scene as I was traipsing through the forest. I saw a clearing and found it to be a river. I did know that there was a river, but this is the Upper Payette river and it meanders more that had thought. Now if only there was an Elk too.
