Last week in Montana we admired the picturesque contrast of receeding snow lines against the emerald evergreens in the Elkhorns. Balmy temperatures in the 50's gave us a false sense of Spring fever. We hiked Mount Helena, going up its icy slippery north slope. The slow going on the way up should have rudely awakened us to Winter's weak, but still obvious grip in our part of the country. Back in Wyoming, wet heavy snow fell today as the temperatures dropped and the sky darkened. Once more, we were fooled by March's Spring-like display. I will admit, we enjoyed having been fooled. JIR
