If you're not following us on Facebook, you missed one the most "like" and commented on postings I've made in a long time.
Background: In foul weather, I'm big on posting pictures of the weather we're experiencing including our RV GPS, our trailer tire pressure monitor, and the weather radar on the Sync screen.
Crossing the Togwotee Pass near the Continental Divide on US 26 caught us both off-guard. While we did have some nice travel days, the default was for us to travel in rain. Such was the case, yesterday, as we travel to Jackson, WY.
So rain was expected, and we did expect to see some large chunks of snow in the shady crevices of the mountains or left over piles of snow from the snowplows as we approached the Continental Divide. We didn't expect this!
For those who like specifics, it's a warm 37 degrees outside. It's a mixture of rain and snow falling. And we're only about 9,800 ft above sea level.
People were still snowmobiling! One lodge's parking lot was full of of snowmobiles - maybe as many as a hundred (available for rent??) It was clear that snow activities were still in full swing.
