Scattered trees in approximately the right positions on the right
Lake would be frozen over and snowcovered in January.
Plenty of forests to make something like that background.
Problems:
Not quite sure the forests would form the dark line in the distance from there, due to the peninsula that I'm guessing the glow comes from.
It's hard to be certain, but it seems at least possible. Adam Cuerden (talk) 02:46, 21 May 2010 (UTC)

EIELSON AIR FORCE BASE, Alaska -- The Aurora Borealis, or Northern Lights, shines above Bear Lake here Jan. 18. The lights are the result of solar particles colliding with gases in Earth's atmosphere. Early Eskimos and Indians believed different legends about the Northern Lights, such as they were the souls of animals dancing in the sky or the souls of fallen enemies trying to rise again.
