Avalanche!
Our temperatures have risen 60 degrees in the past week. The extreme cold snap has finally broken. Today we are in the upper 30's.
The conditions are just right for avalanches in Littlejohn Pass. Yes, that would be the region between our driveway and our front door. If you look a few posts back, you'll notice the photo of Littlejohn Pass. During cold times, snow which has previously accumulated, settles in. Once the temperatures warm to above freezing, the avalanches begin. This morning I opened the front door to find a rather large mound of snow for Little Bit to scale before she could go about her morning business.
The problem is in the removal. No one wants to be the person standing at the base of an avalanche zone making loud, scraping, snow shovel noises. So, we'll draw straws... Rigging it of course so whoever has annoyed us the most in recent days gets the job.
