welcome winter

Well it is official, yesterday was fall, and today winter came. Yesterday the mountains looked like they had been sprinkled with power sugar and today they were wearing their full length winter jackets. Today Edgecombe, our resident volcano, went back to the way I first laid eyes on it, white, very snowboardable, fully visible, and sparkling in the sun. I was hoping to squeeze in one more fall hike on Thursday, but I don't think that will be the case. Back to gaters, snowshoes, and soon snowboards I go!

well said, well said...i feel really sad about the change, it has left an emotional feeling inside seeing the mtns all covered with snow again..its amazing how fast it happened..not gradual at all like it was transition from winter to summer..took months for the snow to melt but just overnight the alpine is changed...
