Silver Linings...



Devil's Postpile, Inyo National Forest, California

Remember those incredible winds this last November 30th?
(I know it was the 30th because they were blowing the day our Addison was born!)
Well...probably the worst hit area for winds (outside of the Pasadena/Temple City area)
was the area surrounding Red's Meadow and the Devil's Postpile in 
the Inyo National Forest.  That's right...just up the road from Mammoth...

According to KIBS radio and the National Park Service website,
the Inyo National Forest, Devils Postpile National Monument, and 
Mammoth Mountain Ski Resort pulled together to begin clearing the area 
of downed trees and debris during December and January
due to the unprecedented lack of snow this season.

Their goal is to open as much of the recreational area as possible this summer. 
Because of our lack of snow, they've gotten a jump start on this objective...
Guess it's true...there's always a silver lining!!!
