Skiplanes & Seaplanes | C-185 Snow Vortices This image is all about the wing tip vortices stirring the snow on top of the ice. Air sliding off the end of the wing tips create the vortices. Normally, they are invisible, but today the blowing snow provides us picture perfect vortices.
The Back Story Not many folks hold a lake party in the middle of the winter. However, as part of a New Years party on the day after new years day, this Cessna 185 was again giving ski plane rides on Pleasant Lake.
