Default elevation change = BIG SNOW

Took a ride on the Mt. behind my house Sun.
Snow in my front yard was around 3". elev. 160 ft.
Heading up the Mt you did not have to go far to run into 6-8" 500 ft.
Made it up to about 1000 foot elev. 14-16" of new snow.
I would not made it that far but a snowmobile had made one pass half way up the Mt. There where quite a few trees down.
A few snap shots.



More than once I had to turn around trying to get to other trails. So much snow I would run up on the skid plate and the wheels are spinning in air.

Knot ran across several well worn runs. And a flock of 20-30 turkeys.
I have chains for all four but did not feel the need for them.

Its like that around here as well, 0 in Westfield, about a little left in russell, then Blandford had about two feet on the ground to Otis. Nothing left on the other side near Montery.

But after this rain, say goodbye to it all and its gonna be in the 60's next week.
