The Day Before Thanksgiving

It's Wednesday before Thanksgiving and we don't have much snow this year but the temps have been chilly each morning. Yesterday this is how the mountains looked as the sun was coming up, absolutely gorgeous . The last picture was taken yeserday afternoon with the early moonrise and Old Gibb still in the sunshine. Living at Trinity everyday is Thanksgiving and a holiday to me because I'm grateful to live in such a beautiful place.
Have a great Thanksgiving and remember to enjoy everyday.

What a Strange start to Snow season

Today is the Monday before Thanksgiving and we only have 1' of snow on the ground, 5' less than we had last year at this time.
When we got the first snow back on Oct 16th I really thought that we were going to have an early snow season but then that melted and the mist/rain started and it took almost 3.5 weeks before seeing snow here again and at the beginning of last week we had 1' on the ground then the rains started again and by Friday we were down to 7" and it rained most of the weekend, however the temps stayed cold and we got the 4-5" of snow back so we have 1' again but last year at this time we already had over 5' and over 8' by Thanksgiving day. It is supposed to be really cold at nights this early part of the week but not much snow expected and snow levels climbing to over 5000' by the weekend.
So for all of those snowmobilers & skiers out there looking for more of the white stuff "Think SNOW" . I have to admit that this will be the first year that I've lived here that we are actually starting out with a 1' base which normally has started out with 3-5' of fluff and no bottom so at least it is starting out right this year. Will keep you informed as to the conditions here.
