The Snow Bath is a Native tradition for infants among some tribes, believed to bring strength and good health. Today I had the opportunity to witness and record this little guy’s first snow bath. His mother was kind enough to share this special moment with me, and I’m honored to get to share these with you. Yes, the sun was really shining while the snow came down around us. The last photo was post-bath. He was mesmerized by the falling snow.
