The severe winter that has gripped most of the nation goes artistic at Niagara Falls where the river and the falls are jammed with ice for 13 miles. It's a spectacular display of Jack Frost at his best (instead of worst). Tourist standing on an ice covered look out point, MS - The frozen river below the falls. Ice jams chock the river for 13-miles. MS - The rocks and ledges by the falls are covered in ice. MS - Niagara Falls water is still going over the edge but everything that is sprayed in water freezes. MS - At the bottom of the falls, there are some ice jams. MS - Water just pouring over the edge into a pile of frozen water.
