Ice Fog

 

Yesterday we got a dusting of snow in the morning and then it cleared off.  I drove up to the pass expecting sunny skies but the fog stuck to the mountain tops.  Halfway up I realized that it was freezing fog and that ice was building up on my ski poles and on my skis.  My hair was full of ice and the doggies were frosted white too.

On the top the sun was trying to break through and everything was pink and golden.  The skiing was not very good.  The new snow was not enough to soften out the bumpy ice and breakable crust underneath it.  But it was sure was pretty!
