The snow is not quite as dramatic as the forecasts, but there is indeed snow out there. I was just out on the snowshoes for the first time this year, out around by the local river. The snow is not so deep that snowshoes are essential, but walking is indeed easier with them, and a step in a deeper soft spot is a lot less dramatic. It's pretty out there in the winter. The river isn't frozen over yet, so the sky is reflected in the rippling water.

The official report is plenty of snow at Lapham Peak, the park with the lighted ski loop, so I'll probably be headed there after work tomorrow. The snow should still be there, tomorrow's high temperature is forecast to be -15°C. That sort of thing is always fun. I've put the insulated tubing on the Camelbak.

I have to admit, snow is one thing I *don't* miss about living in the Upper Midwest. (Which typo'ed as 'Midwet' first time through.)
