Every spring and autumn tens of thousands of Snow Geese make a migration rest stop at Freezout Lake, which sits just east of the Rocky Mountain Front near Fairfield, Montana.

In early spring the mountains' snows are beginning to melt away, exposing the dark earth below. And in the sky, there are tens of thousands of large white geese with black wingtips. Their raucous calls fill the air; and it feels like spring from long ago.

It's a land of stark contrasts and persistence.
