I drove back from southern Arizona through El Malpais last Sunday. There was as much snow as I’ve ever seen on Mt. Taylor (background), even though spring had officially begun earlier in the week.

Back to Winter
A couple of weeks ago it was spring, but Mother Nature’s apparently had a major change of heart. The Sandias, which have had their best snow pack in years, got yet more fresh snow just a couple of days ago.
