We had a light snow down here tonight — less than an inch — but Andy, Beate, and Tim had a spectacular morning on their hike yesterday. (The snow at the top of their hike was about three feet deep. Click on the pictures for higher resolution.)

Thank you, Beate, for most of the pictures!
As it turned out, they timed the hike almost perfectly to catch the sunshine. On their way down it started to cloud up, and by the time they got to the bottom the top was completely clouded over. How’s that for luck?

I envy you guys.
No doubt about it, some of the scenery around here is spectacular, especially in the winter when the sun is out.
Very idyllic! You are making me miss the snow!…never thought that would happen.
It was windy and chilly —notice everyone was bundled up!
so beautiful. you can feel the crispy fresh air from here!
looks great for cross country skiing. well … not the three feet deep stuff.
i tried snow shoes in new york once and they wore me out.
i think i fought them instead of finding a relaxed rhythm.
Actually the trail was beaten down enough they didn’t need snowshoes. They did use the ski poles for stability. “Crispy” air? Andy says he would call it nippy. 🙂
that looks so cool…another sweltering day here, although most of the morning overcast – not as blue skies as it has been though…
yesterday arvo, huge thunder storm and apparently wherever they monitor the rain – we got 46mm – biggest we have had for some months…
