Frag Bear got dumped on....

So i had to go down to Carlsbad on Saturday for a family portrait shoot that i had to do. My brother David was kind enough to take me all the way down, wait for me and then bring me back up. Well before we had even left for the cabin on Thursday we knew that there was the possibility for snow, but on Saturday those chances had dropped and David and I thought that we probably wouldnt get any snow. Oh how wrong we were, on the way back up we see dark clouds enveloping the mountain, our hopes of reaching the cabin without incident were shattered as we saw that once we got on the mountain it started to rain and the temperature began to drop. "well maybe it isn't snowing yet" we both said, and then we began to see cars coming down COVERED in snow............and then we were engulfed. Oh what fun it was to be in the snow putting on chains and being pelted by ice. Yeah how about NO!!! We were about 30min away from the cabin but that turned into about an hour trip since we had to drive in the storm. We made it back safe and sound, and it snowed all night long, so this morning everything was white. I eagerly anticipated the afternoon light so that i could go out and have some fun, and now here i am ready to show you how beautiful it is up here. Enjoy the photos.
