'Bent, BazingaDog, AdventureDog and I went for a hike to see what this week's high temperatures have done to the deep snow near our place in Kolapore. It was a proprioception exercise because mostly we stayed on top of the snow but there were occasional surprises when one foot would plunge shin-deep or twist sideways as the snow gave way.
The open fields are mostly bare now so crust cruising season will not be happening. On the bright side, maybe we'll be mountain biking sooner than usual.
In the forest, you could still see our ski tracks because they're sitting higher than the rest of the snow!
It's always tough for me to let winter go but this snowmelt happened so quickly that it's been like ripping off a bandaid. I'll happily take advantage of any late season blizzards but in the meantime, I'm officially welcoming spring.
