I found the snow!

[ABMax24]

Finally made it out sledding yesterday, was a little cold though at -18c (0f), made for a shorter day and some frostbit cheeks and cold hands. Most areas had 12" of fresh, even found a few spots that had 3-4ft of fresh, jumped off my sled at one spot and was armpit deep.

Lol, you stole the 1-3" they had predicted here... Nothing but 3 flurries.

You can have it! It's been snowing on and off (mostly on) for the last week, and cold, yesterday was the warmest we've had in a week and a half and then the temps dipped again, looks like we might hit freezing again in about 10 days.

Coldest here tonight this season so far. Predicted low of 23 F...

Stay warm!

- 10 here this morning. Got up to 11 this afternoon under a blue bird sky. Sitting @ 8 right now. Sledding here is dead in the water with only about 2" of frozen icy snow on the ground.

Beautiful. Your making me jealous.

We have had barely any snow this year. It's very frustrating to have the ground turn to mud once a week as well. I want to start working on my forestry projects, but I keep putting it off due to the unseasonably warm winter.

Be glad you are not a deer up in our mountains. We had as much as 44" come down in some places in the past few days.

We've done 18 hours of snow removal over Friday and Saturday morning. This is the most snow I've ever seen at one time. Still waiting on official totals, but it looks like we got 13"+. The wind drifts make it hard to know for sure. In some areas it was 2' deep.

Why that snow in Puget is amazing...We are below our count here in the city but maybe tonight we might get a inch or two...clancey

I'd like to be right up there with them actually, looks like fun.

There isn't any big game animals that over-winter in the mountains that we ride, just too much snow for them to survive. I carry a 12ft avalanche probe with me, there's many years that you can't find the ground through the snow.

With all that snow you could make snow tunnels--wow...I bet it is quiet and beautiful..clancey
