Connor and Rowan dug out a snow cave in a pile of snow. Connor did most of it, but Rowan helped a little and they both had fun playing in it.

Today was the Christmas Bird Count and I made my fourth trek up Verstovia and down into Indian River.
A light snow was falling as I reached the treeline on Verstovia Trail and had this view of Harbor Mountain Peaks.
I suspect these are Marten tracks due to size and location, but I'm not positive about that.
There was substantial snow along the avalanche track not far from the falls. This is the first time I've seen it here, though the lack of tall trees suggests it happens periodically.

I think the holes and such in the mud are due to Caddisfly larvae, but I'm not positive.
