Springtime in the Rockies
We just got home from spending a few days at our cabin in Idaho's Sawtooth mountains. I thought I'd share some photos I took on Thursday morning. The mountains were out in all their glory.
Four cow elk spent about three days browsing on the hill behind the house. They made sure they kept an eye on us, but weren't terribly interested in what we were doing as long as they got to eat. All four of them looked like they were in pretty good shape even after the heavy snow we got this winter. The weather up there is warming and the snow is rapidly melting off. That's not saying that we won't have many, many more nights of freezing weather, but springtime is on its way to central Idaho.

AWSOME! Gee, I thought I live in mountains. Mine are just getting started greening up.

The thing that makes them even more amazing is that the elevation in the valley is 6300'.
