Snow and Drought

Wow! Another snow storm is headed for Southern California. It's the third since I took my snow storm break at Cajon Pass in mid April. It's interesting that in a drought, which we are definitely having in California and with most streams and springs already dry in mid April, that we are having the snow storms that should have occurred in January and February and before now in late April and May. The storms don't produce much water in the end but the cold is a definite hindrance to my pleasure while hiking the trail. Since it looks like I'm off the trail for a while, I can't help enjoying it a slight bit more knowing that I wouldn't have enjoyed the trail as much as I'd like to if I were out there..
