Intriguing Inquiry...





"Where does the white go when the snow melts?"
Unknown

Just a little excursion down memory lane...
this was the first year we moved to Mammoth...
you know...the year the mountain had over 60 feet of snow???

Where did all that white go???

      That year was a record high for up here! I think this year may be a record low...

    We usually have about 50-60cm of snow here in Finland but this year was different, no snow at all..well we had few winter weeks with small amount of snow. Weird!!

      It's fascinating to me to hear about similar weather patterns in other parts of the world...

    This is beautiful! I love the tree in the foreground - testifying to how fierce the wind and weather can be! Thanks for linking up!

    I don't feel quite so bad about our not-60-feet of snow here this year now - even though we did get record amounts. It's snowing again today (another 6-9" ...so much for spring being near!)

    All that lovely white creates gorgeous wildflower meadows in summer! :)

      The white turns clear and disappears into the earth...but how does it go from white to clear???

    It went into floods? I like the sculptural detail the tree adds.

      We had a stream in our driveway that year, and our backyard creek was full all summer!!!

    It goes back in the clouds for next time :-)

    Nice composition, the tree looks seriously wind-blown on the right side.
