WHO NEEDS A MOUNTIAN??


This is the giant mound of snow just outside my office. There are a few of these mounds around town. They are on lots either owned or rented by the city. These lots are left open year round, thus making a spot to pile the hundreds of inches of snow we get every year.

This mound has melted this week to just over two stories. The snow is melting quicly but we are planning of having snow on this lot until at least June.


I usually don't pay much attention to the mountian of snow but today was a little differnt. As I was leaving for lunch I noticed voices coming from our mound of snow and lo and behold three people standing at the top with skis. I snapped a few picturs as you can see.



Since I had to take these pictures with my phone I enhanced the one outlining the mound and circling the people at the top.
