Just more snow pix....

Well....as it has been raining lots and lots here...and we have been doing mostly the same parkie or muddy backyard stuff....but someone always has that camera out when we are in the mountains.... Here are more winter pix. ...Enjoy. Snow bib?
Sometimes we drive up Highway 50, Echo Summit area...this is looking at Lover's Leap, a popular climbing spot.
Winding down Highway 50 towards South Lake Tahoe.
Now on Luther Pass, Highway 89.
Passing through Hope Valley towards Carson Pass, Highway 88/89 junction, in route to Kirkwood. This is definitely the LONG WAY!
And, we made it! Time to play in the SNOW!
Or, see where I can dig to!
Camping lot...not too pretty, but convenient and often folks bring barbecues, put up pop-up tents, sometimes watch outdoor movies...or just stay cozy inside.
Morning views out in the meadow.
Looking towards the front side ski runs. Masters Competition staging area. These folks are amazing to watch coming down the mountain....
In the photo below...this is what competitors are navigating! It's called The Cirque, and is off-limits to the general public, but gets opened for some of the more professional comps. Anyway, not for me, thank you.
I'll just stick to my snow play! With my snow bib, and snow on my tongue...
Snooter in the snow.
Have a nice week my friends. We'll be dropping by to say hello!!

  1. Oh, I really like the snow falling on your blog. It makes me feel like I'm there with you and kinda cold so that I need some hot chocolate (any excuse for chocolate.)
    Wow, that's a lot of trees on that slope.
    Sierra is beautiful as always - snow bib and all!

  14. Mom and Dad do that Masters racing stuff!!! They have taken this season off because of injuries (apparently fairly common among these 'older' racers), but they have raced for a bunch of years, and plan on coming back next year. Me? I'm totally jealous of the snow - they keep promising us snow, but instead we just get clouds. Booo!
