Spring comes later to the mountains. A winter storm left snow frosting all the trees when I went out to take this photo. I really liked the wind-sculpted ridges in the snow.
The "mud season" is around the corner, but until then, great days like this are wonderful times to go for hikes in the snow. The sun is getting pretty high in the sky now, and it feels much warmer than the thermometer would have you believe.
