Powder and more powder

It's been snowing like crazy here, and it keeps coming!   We don't have the 10+ feet of snow that Mammoth is getting, but it's good snow!   (And, not the floods in California - I guess it's good we bicycled there last December and not this year!)  The last three days averaged 6 inches a day, and they're predicting 12 inches a day for the next few!    It's different snow than in Minnesota - a bit wetter, and when you step on it, it sounds like styrofoam crunching.   And, it's super sticky so all of the trees have these beautiful thick piles on each branch!
