In other breathtaking shots crisp frost lines the paths through Great Smokey Mountains in Tennessee.
Meanwhile, Oregon’s Crater Lake boasts more than just a slight dusting of snow.

All of the images were collated by the US Department of the Interior, which is the agency that protects US land, water and wildlife.
Tim Fullerton, Director of Digital Strategy, said: ‘America’s public lands are just as beautiful this time of year as they are in the warmer months.
‘Snow and ice turns national parks, wildlife refuges and other public lands into a winter wonderland, enhancing the beauty of nature in America’s great outdoors.’
