SilverFallsAndrew Posted January 27 Report Share Posted January 27 Just for @TT-SEA the nearly 30,000 acre Oologah Lake. The lake has 209 miles of shoreline and when it was filled inundated the land Will Rogers grew up on, his boyhood home was relocated to the current lakeshore. Quite a behemoth of a lake. You can still see a little ice remains from the big cold snap a couple weeks ago when they had highs in the single digits. Currently 37 and cloudy with a stiff northerly breeze. 2 1 Quote Snowfall Precip 2022-23: 95.0" 2022-23: 17.39" 2021-22: 52.6" 2021-22: 91.46" 2020-21: 12.0" 2020-21: 71.59" 2019-20: 23.5" 2019-20: 58.54" 2018-19: 63.5" 2018-19: 66.33" 2017-18: 30.3" 2017-18: 59.83" 2016-17: 49.2" 2016-17: 97.58" 2015-16: 11.75" 2015-16: 68.67" 2014-15: 3.5" 2013-14: 11.75" 2013-14: 62.30 2012-13: 16.75" 2012-13: 78.45 2011-12: 98.5" 2011-12: 92.67" It's always sunny at Winters Hill!

We also love our lake days and beautiful summer days. All of the above. And control none of it.

Sunriver Snow Zone Posted January 28 Report Share Posted January 28 2 hours ago, SilverFallsAndrew said: My brother texted me a bit ago and said he hit 60 in Salem. He lived the past 4-5 years in the Coos Bay Area, so he’s used to 60s this time of year. They actually did well last year for snow though. Probably had about 6-8" total between a couple of events. If you're talking about salem, that is just simply not true. I doubt they got any more than 4" of wintry accumulation, between their snow, sleet, and zr, in the 22-23 season. Maybe you were talking about Coos Bay instead of salem?

I definitely want to visit again. The December 2022 arctic blast happened while I was there as well, making it even better. The first two pictures are from Colorado Springs and the last two from Frisco I like Co Springs. Spent a ton of time there over the years. Last time we were there was February 2020, it was snowing and we drove back to Denver a very round about back way and it was snowing. Saw a ton of elk. 4 hours ago, Sunriver Snow Zone said: The Wind River range is probably the most underrated mountain range in the lower 48.

He just moved to Salem over the summer. I couldn't tell you how much snow Salem got last year. It seemed like amounts varied wildly depending on what part of the city, even at the lowest elevations. NE Salem didn't get much with the February event, probably 1-2", but where my office is just south of downtown had 3-4" with that event. Albany totally got hosed with that one. Not even a dusting.

AlTahoe Posted January 28 Report Share Posted January 28 8 hours ago, Cascadia_Wx said: Comparing natural beauty seems so pointless. What exactly makes these areas more spectacular than others. Is there some sort of objective standard your measuring them by, like topographic relief. Or do you just like them more? If it’s the latter that’s cool, but then you have to be fine with the fact that your opinion is 100% subjective. I say it's what ever takes your breath away. Some places seem to do it more frequently then others.. I have seen a lot of beautiful places in this country but everytime I go to the end of the street and see Tahoe it never gets old.

jcmcgaffey Posted January 28 Report Share Posted January 28 I’ve done a lot of climbing around the world and seen beautiful scenes from the tops of a lot of peaks but for me nothing compares to the awe of the trees of the Redwoods for some reason. I went back last summer and was seriously awestruck for hours walking through them. I have no idea why it strung a chord in my heart.
