Description
Painting of the Bear River, the largest tributary of the Great Salt Lake, draining mountainous areas and valleys northeast of the lake and southeast of the Snake River Plain. It flows through southwestern Wyoming, southeastern Idaho, and northern Utah, in the United States. it is the largest river in North America that does not ultimately reach the sea.
The course of the river essentially makes a large inverted U around the north end of the Wasatch Range. It rises in northeastern Utah in several short forks on the north side of the high Uinta Mountains in southern Summit County. The Bear River begins at the confluence of two tributaries, Hayden Fork and Stillwater Fork. The Hayden Fork originates north of Hayden Pass, just west of Hayden Peak. The Stillwater Fork originates in a plateau with an elevation of about 10,000 feet and surrounded by the high peaks of Mount Agassiz, Hayden Peak, and Spread Eagle Peak.
From its source the Bear River flows north cutting across the southwest corner of Wyoming past Evanston then weaving along the Utah-Wyoming state line as it flows north. It turns northwest into Bear Lake County, Idaho and flows through the Bear Lake Valley in Idaho, past Montpelier where it receives the short Bear Lake Outlet Canal that drains Bear Lake, which straddles the Idaho-Utah border. At Soda Springs, near the north end of the Wasatch Range, the Bear River turns abruptly south, flowing past Preston in the broad Cache Valley that extends north from Logan, Utah. It re-enters northern Utah, meandering south past Cornish and Newton. It is impounded to form the Cutler Reservoir. From the west end of Cutler Reservoir it flows south through the Bear River Valley of Utah past Bear River City.
Bear River was once a tributary of the Snake River, but lava flows north of Soda Springs, Idaho diverted it into what was then Lake Bonneville.

This is a re-visit. Most excellent work, one of my favorites! I was watching a painter in Santa Fe a few years back. Asked him what was the hardest part about painting. He said "knowing when to stop". Always liked that comment...

This painting has such a soft look to it. I really like how the icy blue color of the water perfectly compliments the rusty orange shrubs. like!
