Annual February Warmup

It seldom fails! During the month of February, we normally experience a warmup for about a week, maybe two if we're lucky. Then winter comes back!

This is our snowpack on February 8th. A month ago, all these bushes were covered! The melting snow is making some places rather slushy, but warmer weather is very welcome right now.

The view here is generally south, toward the last sunlight on the Sangre de Cristo mountains.
