That
little jest will possibly come back to haunt me later in the winter, but just
now conditions are anything but the 'drier and warmer than normal' predicted
for this area. It has been cool and rainy all week and the snow line has slowly
crept down the mountain until it arrived in our yard today. It wasn't much snow,
particularly not for you Calgarians, but Mr. Corn was not impressed.
As
you went up the mountain, the snow depth increased until it was all the way
up to my shoe laces at the Bear's Den. If you had short feet you could probably
call it ankle deep. :-)
There was probably a lot more further up the hill, but it was quite foggy and
time constraints and to be honest, general sloth, kept me down low. However
it was surely a lot different than on
this day last year, when I biked up to the top of Bear in warm dry conditions.
