68-71* this week. Sunny and Dry. Pretty typical for us. Late December often puts us in a warm spell before we get clobbered in January. Just hoping for some rain in all that.

Man blewett pass has a ton of snow at the summit and north side. About the most I've seen this early!

All of our snow has melted out (protected north facing still has patches) and it rained to 9k last night. Long range shows no cold air through the middle of January. This winter is turning into our usual drought year dud.

We did some crazy trails. I was blown away how good the jeep did.

It won't. I'm not even mad at this point. I'm honestly impressed. If it wasn't for that 10 day stretch last winter our snowless stretch would be over a year now. It's honestly really impressive how we just can't get a good winter here anymore since 2021. Prior to that we'd get an occasional poor winter but we always had average ones. Now we struggle to get 50% of our average snowfall and struggle to get a month below normal. This winter is just impressive on how it finds new ways to let us down.
