Hope we can revive some interest in sharing our tail pics.

From my LR on Sunday...
The trails behind my house...
At the trailhead near the house...
Took a little jaunt from French Creek down to Hopewell Furnace and back from the trail head up on Shed Road yesterday. THis was after Saturday's snow and freezing rain event. The trees up on top of the hill (1000 ft.) were still shedding the frozen precipitation that had stuck to the branches. It was sort of dripping cold rain in the forest up there with the added sound effects of ice pellets hitting the frozen snow. Down at the bottom of the hill (500 ft?) the "rain storm" had already stopped. I guess that's the difference between a few degrees and a few hundred feet. The trails were mostly unbroken until I hit them. A quarter inch of crunchy ice topping covering a few inches of wet snow and slush. Cold on the feet. Slow to run in for the most part, except downhill.
A good day for a short run though with some photo stops.

Pictures taken by one of the volunteers at yesterday's Solstice races (5k, HM, marathon. Did the HM). We had 5.5 hr between sunup and sundown, except sun didn't show.

Our snow is nearly gone and it feels more like spring than winter and for that I am truly grateful
A few snow/dog photos from Green Lane reservoir trails this past weekend. 60 degree temps for our run in the snow. The german pointer sort of blends into the wintery woods scene like "where's Waldo?!".
From our long run today.
Fresh powder on the AT covering all those rocks.
For You history buffs. We ran through here. Camp Michaux

Winter, what winter? %$#@! drought. But admittedly, it makes for nice running. This is Raider Ridge above Durango.
I am in love......... where is this? You can have some of our wet, muddy weather if you'd like

THis is true for us in CA as well. I could show you a photo from this weekend you would swear was Summer....

Durango, Colorado. We are having a poor snow year so far in the southwest corner of the state, which is bad news for the ski resorts, agriculture, spring rafting season and the summer fire season. It has been great running! But it's not supposed to look like this in late January!
Someday I am going to visit Colorado.
