I was just looking through some of my Autumn photos from years past here in Vail, and ran across my 'first snow' photo from 2006. Luckily I had date stamped the photo, 9/24/2009. Hard to believe the Gore Range was completely covered in snow in September of 2006. After seeing this photo, I got so excited for the coming ski season that I checked the Weather Channelto see when we should expect our first storm. We don't have long to wait!
We're expecting some lower temps at night and moisture in the air starting tomorrow. It could turn to some white stuff by next weekend.
Now, coming from a girl who grew up in brutal winters in South Dakota, you probably wouldn't expect me to be looking forward to winter, but I am! Summer has been great, but the Vail Valley truly comes to life in the winter. With skiing, snowboarding, outdoor concerts, snow shoeing, ice skating, amazing winter menus at the local restaurants... the list goes on and on and I can't wait!
Stay tuned to this blog to see the 'first snow' photos in Vail from 2010!
