[Watson777]

pretty bummed I didn' make it up to get pics of teh first snow of the year like I had planned on... I looked at the cams on mt ashland and stuff though and Mt ashland was getting pounded right before dark. It was raining incredibly hard at my house and I am just over the hill so I knew it had to be snowing hard up there! Man I can't wait!

 

[wardy]

i went up to lake of the woods and drove the 4 mile loop up to lake ...it was snowing pretty hard ,,,good build up on my mirrors and grill...sticking on the ground too

Yes Sandman we have "smart" snow here at Crescent Lake, sometimes it's smart enough to form into a snowman.
