It is official, the "regular" season is over. This also applies to my guiding season; although I did guide last year on December 5 0f last year (see December 2009's
Frozen Fingers & Icey Guides).
Currently we're in the midst of our first serious winter snow-storm of the season. As of 2 PM today we've received 2 feet PLUS of snow at our back deck at our home at 6500'. The attached image will give you a perspective.

The sun has attempted to peak
through on several
occasions...very briefly. The snow will continue through early Tuesday. That
translates to another 2 feet at my place and
minimally another 4 feet on the high peaks; which I'm predicting at
cumulatively high-up at 8 feet on new snow. All this bodes well for a good wet winter that will definitely benefit the local trout fisheries.
