I want to hear your method for getting "Over this Plow Wall" Bogie. Waiting until July is not an acceptable answer.

Done there, been that but with a 443. One soon finds out that there is never a laundromat when you need one.

Looks like our little lake is getting quite a bit of ice, which will be reducing of ending our snow. Oh well. Here is some recent photos of skiing and of our yard. The dog is on top of a rose bush roof.

Here is some photos take over the past few days, during and after the blizzard. We received 12" over the weekend but that's not a big deal, but the 70mph gusts that came with it were. :unsure: I see I got the photos of me coming out of our yard backwards! :smileywac The lame old garage is ours....

4’ compressed base Conway NH.

Ice Dam on new standings seam roof leaking is awesome. Lots of sno! Smash the windows out Incase of emergency because casements on the first floor are buried.

Red Bull vodka and roof rake cocktail!


Lots of snow northeast.

McDonald Mtn radio site at 3,500 feet. Snow depth was over the top of the 6 foot concertina wire topped fence. We just (carefully) stepped over it. It took 90 minutes to crawl the 7 miles. This was the steepest and deepest snow I've ever driven in. Tracks were slipping. Several times had to back up to turn.

the old gotta watch what you wish for playing out. I bought an off grid cabin last year and an old thiokol 603. I took it to the mountain about a month ago and there was about 3-4 feet of snow and had a good time. Ive been trying to get back up there for 3 weeks now but can't because it never stops snowing long enough to gt back up there. At this rate I will be cattin around up there in July .

The lake has largely froze over but we're getting system snow here today. That paper says we're at 260 with 60" on the ground. Here is some photos taken this weekend while BC skiing and as usual, many more are on the dogs blog. :unsure:

Ha! It's whiter here today than it is in Houghton. 3"+ fresh and still falling at 34 degrees at 8pm near Madison, Wis.

I might have to head down to Tyrol Basin and hike!

Did you get much snow down there Paul? I think we'll be waxing skis and putting them away shortly. :unsure:

Quick update. It's all gone again. Today it's raining.

Snowfall varied widely, in Madison it melted more when it hit. We got about 3" total out in the sticks.

Adios winter.

Below are two photos of the same gate this winter, then and now. We had another great season here. :clap: Snow is 90% gone at this point. We do hope to open up some new trail system about 10 miles out of town this fall, where much more snow falls..


If any of you characters get up to Houghton MI this summer, do get in touch and we'll try getting out with you.

Lake Superior is predicted to hit a record level this summer and so are some of the little lower lakes. (we call southern warm ponds:) We have received some rain this summer here in Houghton on the south shore, but not a serious amount.


The snow in the photos I've posted above, is about 90% lake water.



Thanks to all who post.

SW Montana's been getting some snow. More today with below 0 temps. The roads are getting closer and closer to impassable in the higher country. Hunters will keep them open as long as possible.

We are getting some modest snow here. Seems this is lake snow assisted by a system. Our 5 day forecast is white..
