Here are a few pics I took of Whiteface Mountain tonight before it got dark. It had a lot more snow yesterday, but I was too tired to photo it then! There is still a dusting up there on the highway where you and Pete, drove, Carol! You can see the road in these pics!

That diagonal white line is the highway to the top, covered with a bit of snow!

Telephoto pic of Whiteface from my friend's front yard, with pretty maple tree colored leaves in front.

Hope you all have a nice night!

I've hiked that mountain and I think, rode the ski lift-but only in the summer-and SOOO many years ago. It's going to be in the 90's here with high humidity this week. Thanks Soos, for the cool weather :D carold

In Alaska they call that 'termination dust'.

Termination dust: coined by the miners in ALaska. Meaning time to stop mining for the season and get off the mountain.

We had our 1st snow flakes of the year yesterday and today with more predicted for tomorrow. We've had our killing freeze so - cold weather is officially here! Our 1st measurable snow usually arrives by Halloween.
