Unseasonably Cool Weather Moves through the Sierra Nevada Mountains
It’s still August, but it felt more like late October this past weekend as an unseasonably cool weather system moved through the Sierra Nevada mountains.

Black and white summit view late in the day with the next set of clouds rolling in and another storm on the way.

Spring Storm, Clouds Lifting
Clouds opening up and the lake coming into view in the distance at the tail end of a spring storm. I have a feeling this was my last true winter conditions ski tour of the season. Not quite a deep powder day, but almost, and plenty of coverage for April. Lake Tahoe Basin. April 2024.
