February Moon

Even when Mother Nature seems to be not quite herself, she delights.

Several of us who keep track of such things, can’t ever remember a Winter such as we’ve been experiencing. Given the temperatures and the copious amounts of rain, it’s truly unbelievable how good the crew at Elk have been keeping the ski conditions.

A few of us recently travelled north, and corresponded with kindred spirits there only to find that the best skiing on the east coast right now may very well be at Elk.

As we look forward to whatever the rest of this Winter offers us, the sky has been entertaining. The moon setting over Elk and the snowmaking lights earlier this week was nearly surreal.

And, just to keep us looking up, a bald eagle soared over Elk before gliding off to parts unknown.
