SALT LAKE CITY—After months of snow and heavy spring rains in the valley, the thaw made its way into Salt Lake City on Sunday. Liberty Park, 80 acres of tall trees, an aviary, small lake, and playgrounds with picnic tables sprung to life.

Kite flying is particularly challenging in Liberty Park, since most areas sport 100 feet to 150 feet high trees.

The high winds brought some of these flying creatures to a halt, as seen with this kite, though locked into the limbs of a tall tree, it still flies in the wind, but unable to move. There were remnants of four kites perched in the trees near the children’s playground.
