imschur Posted December 29, 2010 Report Share Posted December 29, 2010 We had no snow at at all this winter until Sunday. Thats when the blizzard came. While we go over a foot of snow that's not the big deal. It was the wind that came with the snow and the wind that lasted until yesterday. It never stopped. Trees were toppled, structures collapsed. Clean up was difficult because the wind just keeps blowing the snow back. Today we are finally down to a light breeze and the snow is staying put. Hopefully Ill be able to clean this mess up once and for all. Ill try to get a picture out my back door later. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I got a truck with 42" tires stuck in my drive way two days ago and just finally got it dug out today! Got to love Alaska! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ryantowry_81 Posted January 2, 2011 Report Share Posted January 2, 2011 I find it really ironic that there is a massive cold spell going on down there but we are having record highs for this time of year up here. I actually saw grass today for the first time since September. It got to 35 and I had to bust of the t shirts haha Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
imschur Posted January 2, 2011 Author Report Share Posted January 2, 2011 We had our coldest December on record..then the blizzard last Sunday. It's been nearly 50 for the last few days. Wacky weather to put it mildly. I was actually considering getting back into snowmobiling. Screw it I want another boat. Should have never sold my Ranger..stupid stupid stupid Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I did a horse drawn sleigh and a dog sled once.

TacBlade Posted January 5, 2011 Report Share Posted January 5, 2011 Nothing like pulling up beside a coyote doing about 50 mph and capping him with a shotgun!!! Of course that was in the old days when it was still legal!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The mountains behind me got a light dusting of the fluffy stuff, but it didn't do any more than a light flurry in town. Surrounding areas got the smack down, though, in some way, shape or form. Sleds in snow, though - I love it. Can't even explain it - kinda like "floating with speed" through the stuff, unless it's wet and heavy. At that point, it's like paddling through mashed potatoes. >:( Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
