where is the snow?

I Fing hate winter!
I’ll take the cold over snow any day.
Luckily ours are mild for the region, (SE Ohio / western WV). Usually get a real snow every few years, 4-8 inches. Other than that numerous “skiffs” to an inch or two.
In the same week it can be 10 Monday and 70 Friday.
Our dog loves to chase snow flakes though.

Uh, that bird on the top right....does the farmer know you shot one of his chickens?

Dude Tryin to cut slope with snow is interesting. Worked pretty good in places though. Never had to to that before.

It was just a tunnel at the end. Either big cut banks or trees up close. Lot of snow, and not much extra time to get creative with where you put it.... Everybody was getting a bit grumpy. Fun looking back on it..

Bufflehead in a field. Now there's something I have never, ever seen.

ETA: Or is that a hooded merganser? Either way, I've never seen one in a field.

It's been a little cold here up until a few days ago. We made out out snowshoeing once.

This is always my heavy work travel season. I generally like being out in the cold other than some raynauds in my hands. Been doing some hiking etc. Ive been kind of bored with ice fishing in recent years. Swapping some gun barrels and optics.

Coldest December on record here in Fairbanks. Didn't really get above 30 below the whole month. Down to 55 below quite a bit.

Still waiting for that Global Warming they've been promising.

Been a weird winter.

Generally, just wrapping up duck season and maybe hitting some fields for geese. Didn’t even make it out for either this year. Not a lot of birds, couldn’t find anyone to go with me and the weather wasn’t really good.
Spent most of this winter staying home with the family, looking for deer on the winter range and small house projects.

We were going to start a reflooring project in February but had to replace the waterline into our house unexpectedly. That ate up all our money.

seems our part of the world got hammered by cold and snow in december ... coldest december since 42 years and coldest ever 6 weeks in a row all across the yukon and now overflows everywhere ...

I’ve been out doing a little winter hiking. Watching some deer, waiting for sheds to start. I’ve been debating on tearing into the old Dodge’s dash to change out the ac evap and heater core. That chore isn’t getting much traction though.

We'd like some of that snow in Western Colorado. Wife and I rode ATV's up on The Uncompahgre Plateau this week. There's almost no snow at 8300' on Divide Road Unit 61/62

[Ten Bears]

What a friggin cutie! What it's hers/his name?

Randy

I wish we knew! I think the wife and I are on our 10th name, we have 12 days to decide before he comes home..

The final four are Otis, Walker, Miller, or Earle.

Just waiting for the lake to freeze and maybe some decent snow to hit the slopes! This mild winter has been nice but awful at the same time here in MT
