Mt. Peak's Own Weather

Hiking up Mt. Peak on a day during the most recent windstorm, as usual planning to be on alert for cracking and falling timber, I was surprised by the difference in the weather on the hill. Getting in amongst the trees, there was hardly a breeze -- no noticeable wind all the way to the top, including on the top.

Having recently hiked up into a hailstorm, the usual rain, and the odd nicer day, it was strange to have a windstorm on the flats, and Mt. Peak calm.

False Spring Drags On

The other day I hiked up into a hailstorm on Mt. Peak.

Soon after, the snow level came down the closest range of foothills.

Every time it warms up, we relapse into cold weather again.

Spring's got to be coming soon.
