Snow Tease!

I wouldn't start unpacking the powder wax or heating the iron just yet, but a light coating of white appeared on the hill tops yesterday and it certainly conjures up thooughts of cruising a little fluff. However our nasty friend reality would point out that there is still over two months until the hill opens.

Still the summer of last week has certainly evaporated and it now feels very much like fall. At twenty to five it is only 6 C and we just had something like a slush shower.


A lightly sugared Lizard ridge.

But the main feel is that of fall, not winter

Still the mountains down by Hosmer certainly look nicely white
