It's amazing how snow transforms the mundane into the special!
We drove up 50 to a little plowed out area just after Camp Sacramento. There were two trucks already parked there, but no people.
We followed a heavily traveled trail that followed a road. It went gradually uphill following Sayles Creek. Most of the traffic led to one cabin that was in use and then it was fresh snow with older tracks just visible under about 6 inches of beautiful snow. It was perfect consistency...supported weight easily...not too wet so no balls of snow under the feet...stunningly beautiful.
We just kept going up and when it started to snow we headed back. Big storms are coming in and I wanted to be below 5000 feet before they hit!
The movie is of Commando jumping to catch snow balls. He does this for fun and to get a drink.
