    Winter Wonderland

    Got tired of icing down the knee so I went out to finish the cigar started earlier today. Most of the shots are looking Southwest toward what's called "The Hogback". I shot them off the back porch. We have been experiencing a condition called an inversion that looks like smog and usually the air quality is very good at 7000+ ft.

    Looking Southwest


    Aspen is back over the last Mtn. range in the crook of the Hogback


    From the porch


    Indy sorta soaking up "her" kinda weather on the back porch


    We've gotten about 20+ inches of snow since the Holidays, more higher up and the ski areas are very happy. A boon to skiers and boarders, a bane to gimpy kneed kilties.

    We never see that much snow in the Southeast. It is nice to see it without feeling the cold.

    Photos.........

    Wonderful photos, thanks for sharing.

    Imagine a lone piper playing there as the tune hauntingly flows around the Hogback. Magic!

    Thanks again and the Skye kilt looks great too.

    Nice kilt. As for the snow---lovely to look at. Even lovelier not having to shovel it. (From a transplanted Buckeye enjoying the "Winter" in Charlotte.)
