The First Big Snows are Happening....

Wow! It has been a long time since I touched this blog and probably have a lot to write about but am just busting through some thoughts for tonight. I am also having trouble typing and a having to backspace to correct my mistakes!

Anyway, it started this past weekend (10/23-24) with our weather. We basically started getting our first big storms pushing off the ocean over the coast range, across the valley and hitting up against the Cascades. Mt Hood is almost close to "3" feet of new snow at timberline lodge as of this Tuesday! Our favorite little ski area 'HooDoo' has over 25 inches in their parking lot from the past four days. Hope it keeps up and makes for some great days on the hill and doing the snowboard thing. My daughter is chomping at the bit to get back on a snowboard as she was just learning last year. I think she will put it all together this year.

All of that got me thinking of some snow shots and will start to look through my records (photo achieves) and see what I can find. Until I get some more I am posting one from a few years back looking back at Mt. Jefferson from near the Detroit Reservoir in the Eastern part of Marion County.

Enjoy, Tim
