White is gold

Moisture in the bank for this summer. πŸ™‚

Spring Creek Basin got another dose of the valuable white stuff, and parts of the basin have 4 to 6 inches of snow from a second wave of snow yesterday morning. The previous morning’s snow had melted in some areas (mostly outside the basin), but this bit of white gold may stick around for a wee bit longer.

Sundance and his band were near another band, high up a hillside. Below – in and along the big arroyo that runs along the base of the ridge – a decent-size group of elk had browsed their way through the drainage, leaving tracks and trails. I wonder whether the horses were there when their elk friends passed?!

Sundance is deginitely the cherry on top in that scene all full of snow! I’m so happy you got a few inches, TJ!

It sure does give us a relieved feeling to have all this moisture seeping into the ground. As crazy as it seems to be everywhere else (!), we haven’t had much this winter. Grateful!

So glad you got some good snowfall! Hoping this is a trend! Sundance is very handsome!

It would be great to get this kind of snow consistently throughout the winter. I say that with the dawning realization that other places in the local region are getting quite a bit of snow – inches and even feet more!

Hope some of it, at least, has settled on your ground for snowy walks and beneficial moisture!

Nice! All is right with the world when there’s snow on the ground in winter Colorado. πŸ™‚
