We still have a nice cover of snow … but it’s melting rapidly, and we have temps near 60 – SIXTY – in the forecast! The parched ground is soaking up the snow super-fast.

In another note, thanks to a comment from reader TamrahJo, I remembered this pic that I took with my phone a couple of days ago while snowshoeing out to a couple of bands in the basin:
The first “shape” I saw was the big “heart.” It looks like someone drew the lines with a stick or something, but I promise you that that “someone” was NOT me, nor was there any evidence at all of another human being out there (there’s almost never any other evidence of humans hiking where I hike).
I can’t explain it, but with all the hate rampant in the world, I’d like to offer this image and what it (might) represent (to humans, anyway) as a simple antidote: From Mother Nature to the world, with love.
