Picture of the Day – January 18th, 2010
What we got last night can only be called a dumping of snow. At 11PM there was a dusting; less than one inch. This morning I awoke at 7:30AM to texts and missed calls from friends who were out hitting the slopes reporting over one foot of fresh pow (powder). I opened my curtains and, lo and behold, nearly one foot of fluffy, white, gorgeous snow. Not wanting to brave the holiday crowds at the mountains, I decided to head over to camp to survey the scene. Below is what I found:
Is this really camp?
Camp is literally buried in snow. With my 4WD on I struggled up the driveway with snow drifts up to the hood of my car in some places. While we had much more last winter while I was living in the Lodge, this is a great mid-season storm and the deep snow is a welcome sight.
Tomorrow will be a long day of shoveling decks, roofs, and driveways, but today, at least for a few hours this afternoon, I will be out shredding the pow pow (snowboarding) at nearby Gunstock.
