Or you could watch the Yule Logs. Those are up now, on channels 303 and 304.

The constantly barking dog got to me. I turned it off.

you and me both except mine is CBS and CW. I'll miss the Flash!

I haven't seen Bigfoot/Yeti. At how many minutes after the hour does he show up?

Too much background noise.

Lights reflected in river do not reflect anything on the house - look like wreaths but only strings of lights on house.

What's with all the heavy breathing?

I watched the reflected lights for a while yesterday, trying to figure them out. The thing is, they seem to be related to the flashing lights on the house - then the house lights go out, the reflection happens in the ice. I would think they would be in sync.

Not sure why you'd create a beautiful serene Winter Christmas scene and then spoil it with noises. Ok, ok, I'm harping specifically on the barking dog (WHY!!??) but the other noises are a bit much as well. Rant over, I promise not to mention the dog again.

Finally saw "Bigfoot" at about 52 minutes past the hour. He appears on the left side for about three seconds in the shadows and disappears behind the evergreen tree, not to reappear on the other side. He seems to be wearing a Santa cap, and could be a resident in the main cabin.

I agree that there's too much background noise. If it's intended to be wind, why are snowflakes falling downward slowly. In a wooded scene such as this, it should be so quiet as to hear a pin drop.

The Christmas light reflections do not match the actual flashing lights, as others have noted.

Also, there is black dot that moves around in the sky above the mountains for a few minutes. Is it meant to be a distant Santa and reindeer flying to their next stop?

I agree - the sound level doesn't match the visual ambience of the scene. The barking dog reminds me of visiting a relative of mine and their dog. But that's another story...

Someone had to have done some serious climbing to decorate those tall trees.

Well, in real life, the northern lights don't make a sound effect, either, but they always have one in the Dish Scapes.

The lights reflected in the ice are someone else's display, located behind the camera.


During the snowstorm, the lights on all of the houses in the background all go out at the same time. So, true to real life, the snowstorm caused a power outage. The cabin (and all of the other nearby lights) must be on their own generator. This Dish Scape brought to you by Generac.

Saw the snowman wave his left arm and moved his head

The "abominable" snowman.

If you watch the tree to the right during the heavy snow fall, there is an accumulation of snow on the branches. When the storm passes some of the snow just melts while the big one in front "dumps".

That is the sound DISH provides when they want to make the event sensational, like when Atlantis appeared in the underwater scape. DISH certainly goes overboard in providing unreal background noise.

More useless information: actually there's been considerable discussion about the "sound" of the northern lights. Some insist that there's a hiss, others an occasional "clap." I don't think anyone has reported the celestial sounds we hear on dish scapes. Here's a link to a recording of the "clap" - Clap Sounds of Northern Lights? - Sound Source 70m Above Ground Level - YouTube

This is one I can’t watch. The dog barking makes my dogs bark like crazy.

Also noticed the lights in the water not matching anything else flashing.

Mute your sound Scott!

I still like my theory:

The lights reflected in the ice are someone else's display, located behind the camera.

If only the camera could turn around, so we could see the actual light display that is being reflected by the ice.
