Will It Ever End?


Snow, snow, and more snow. This winter has set a record for the most snowfall in Whitehorse, as
you can see in this photo. It has been a real challenge keeping the deck and walkways clear this winter. The high mound of snow in the foreground shows the top of our apple tree, wrapped in burlap, poking out of the top. The snow must be at least 2 meters in height after piling it up from clearing the walkway behind it.




Here's a photo from the deck. On the corner of the deck railing the snow keeps piling up and then drapes down in a curious formation.

The forecast is for some milder weather over the next 10 days, but not warm enough to melt anything yet. It will be interesting to see where all the runoff will go from the melting snow once it does get warmer.
