Baby, it’s snowy out there!

4 12 2025

Looking east along Road K20E toward Spring Creek Basin at sunrise. Some of that clearing-storm cloudbank lingered well into the afternoon … even as the rest of the sky cleared to deepest Colorado blue. Deer (maybe elk, too?) and rabbits have been out and about.

Now looking east up Road 19Q toward the basin. This pic, in particular, seems deceptive regarding the amount of snow. The melting really got under way in the afternoon, but that is/was some great snow! Three inches or so? Not bad for our first (and second?) coverings of the season.

And I hiked through a fair bit of it to find some wild ponies. 🙂

We got snow back here too – about 6 inches or so – and COLD! Tonight its supposed to be six (6) !! degrees and its windy too.
The snow is fine – the cold? Not quite so enjoyable!

That’s nippy, for sure. 🙂 Hope it keeps your snow slowly seeping into the ground. Muddy here now, but we still have a fair bit of snow. I’m so grateful for the slow-seep moisture.

Me, too! I’d love to get another good winter to make up for last winter’s terrible dryness!

It sure was something, coming back from Texas. 😉 I’m so glad to have the snow and hope it’s a sign of the winter to come.

Sure is a big relief to have that moisture seeping into the soil!
