Another absolutely glorious winter day. Deep blue sky, cold temperatures, stable, thick snowpack. What an amazing stretch of winter weather. I've spent the week, hiking, wondering and just taking it all in. My local hiking trails were in beautiful condition ever since last Sunday when they froze. Today they were packed snow and beautiful. It would of been a super rare, perfect week for cross country skiing on what's normally mountain bike trails. The past 7 days gets a 10/10 for me. Being self employed allows me to take off Jan, through the middle of February.
