A SNOWY WALK ON THE SHORES OF RATTLESNAKE LAKE

Oh, what a perfect morning for new snow! We were the only ones with the idea of checking out that area; well, one snow-happy dog attached himself to us. A hundred different shades of grey made for a more exciting walk than one would think.

Pat and I headed early to higher elevation, even as our morning snow was starting to recede, we were pretty sure there would be more up there at the lake.
Since Pat posted the different moods of the morning as demonstrated high on R. Ridge, I will add some ground level stuff here. It was so peaceful. Cold, crunchy, quiet.


Ice caught in thorny limbs above our heads.
