At the top of Summit Trail there was 10 cm and a little more the higher up one went. We found some places with 30 cm. The open places were hit with wind and the quiet trees were the best. We had a great day in the trees. Pictures to follow.


We took a page out of Maxwell's book today and played in some nice powdery meadows. So call me a "meadow muffin"...........

A guy has to doo what a guy has to doo!!

If it is any consolation, it was a dead one. So I laid it down for the insects to get at it more easily this summer. Always got to think ahead to protect the environment!
Atta boy! Gonna be another cold week down there it looks like eh.

Ya, I'm thinking that also. A little too cold for my ol' bones. The weather forecasts have been so screwed up that I am going to wait and see the actual temp at my house before I venture out again.

I am lucky I can do that and haven't got a holiday booked for mountain riding and then land here when it is below that -20 degree BS.

He had a jammer up on the mountain? Can't think of a much better place to go but not too nice of a time for his family. How old?

Fingers crossed it warms up/snows a little before the weekend.
