End of January Days - Ski Trip, etc.

Lots of little doin's on the nicer weather days.  Here's a few

Brenda captured a fox near her chicken coop

she releases it to the wild away from the chickens

Jackass Creek waterfall series, as seen from the Ridge Road

Crews knock down loose rocks at the slide zone at MP 11.5 

view of the Reflecting Pool, with the slide zone behind it.

one of those "whatzits"; a cable roller?  a fan?

some of the debris knocked down so it doesn't come down on its own

perspective on how big the rocks really are

shadow stripes and shapes

water leaks off every cliff face in the canyon

another day of road work delays at the slide zone.  Makes going for the mail a long trip, time-wise

Chambers Creek
Moon-set at sunrise in Cindy's neighborhood

brilliant morning sky

Cousins!  Cindy and Jeffery at Sugarbowl

Jeffery on the Gondola, heading up to the slopes!

Dorothy and Cindy, ready to ski!

cool tree in great snow

another very cool tree

selfie from the chair-lift

Harriet's Hollow had the most wonderful snow-on-trees, and I could just stand on my skis, sliding along taking photos

snow on trees in Harriet's Hollow

a different kind of snow flocking the trees

we got snowed off the slopes, so we ate lunch

same view after the blizzard subsided and we ski-folk went back onto the slopes

snow on roof.  Jeffery saw it later, after it had cracked off and fallen

snow grooming vehicle seen from the gondola

icicles; these weren't even the best, longest, or most.  Boreal's main lodge had some killer icicles

another blizzard comes upon us as we gondola back to the parking lot to head home
