Serendipity Sunday...Snow Scenes on Grand Mesa

Snow Scenes on Grand MesaA recent snowstorm in the area dumped about two feet of snow on Grand Mesa. In town we only had about four inches stick to the ground, but it was very wet and heavy and caused a lot of tree and limb damage and power outages, too. 

Nature does have a way of getting your attention...in many ways. While the storm wreaked havoc in town, the winter scenes on Grand Mesa are beautiful. I'm sure due to the elevation and colder temperatures the snow wasn't as heavy and I didn't see any signs of tree damage. 

Snow Scenes on Grand MesaThe blanket of white adds a peacefulness to the mountains and has a beauty all it's own. 

The cross country ski trails are open. Powderhorn Mountain Resort is gearing up for the winter and making snow to add to what's already on the ground. 

The winter predictions call for a lot of snow. If this predication holds true, I know the ski areas will be happy, and the high country will get the snow pack it needs to fill lakes and reservoirs for domestic and agricultural water use. 

I've lived on Colorado's Western Slope for over 26 years. I love this area and all it has to offer, and I enjoy sharing what I know about my home. As a REALTOR®, I also love to share my expertise in this area as well. If you need real estate information for Montrose County, or Delta County, Colorado...please give me a call.

You make me laugh, Brian England ...You are truly a warm weather person. Although I have to add that I have a warm fire going in my woodstove right now.

I've heard that a lot of places across the country are suppose to get hit hard with snow this year, Rebecca Gaujot, the Go To Realtor® . It will be interesting to see what happens in my area, and I hope you don't get overwhelmed with the white stuff.

Hi, Lou Ludwig ...winter is here for us in Delta County. We had more snow earlier tonight. There might even be more falling as we get closer to morning.

Hi, Larry Johnston ...we didn't get much snow until towards the end of the season last year. Our local ski area had to close early. So I hope we have a good snow this year, and it snows throughout the winter.

You are making me chuckle, Gabe Sanders . I have my wood stove just burning away to keep the house warm, and you have 80 degrees. I do like winter, though, and I would really miss it if I didn't have it. Thank you for stopping by.

Missed these pictures last Sunday, Debbie. They are gorgeous... and while I appreciate the snow pictures, I am happy I don't have to experience the snow first hand.
