A snapshot of the Similkameen River captured on Feb. 26.

In the winter, the Similkameen River transforms into a magical icy wonderland, with sections freezing over to create stunning natural ice formations.

While the valley is known for its hot summers, winter brings a whole new kind of beauty—think frost-covered vineyards, snow-draped orchards, and cozy fireside wine tastings.
