Yesterday afternoon Teina and I drove out to Valle Chico to see if we could see snow on Sierra San Pedro Matir. The answer was no as the clouds were so low and with the slight rain that was falling we just couldn't see any.


But this morning with the sky clear and the sun bright, we can see lots of snow on all the mountains visible from my home.


Covered down to maybe 3000 feet or so.

Thanks Udo,
Not quite Mexico, but just a little north and I imagine there were scenes like this just below the border. :yes:

I just love snow on cactus----this one is my favorite (sorry I also posted it in another thread---GUILTY)

We're freezing our buns off in the Boise area - it's only supposed to be 14 degrees tomorrow. Baja never looked like a better alternative. Snow all around us here and no escape in sight!!!

I haven't had the pleasure of visiting Laguna Hanson. But, it's not too hard to pronounce a mountain range by its specific name. :light:

What???? Neither have seen Luguna Hansen??? That is one of the true GEMS of Baja. Listen to the CAT, guys and go see it ASAP-----------Fabulous!!!! as is all that high country around there. I have been, and camped there, probably more than any other place in the peninsula. I even found Native Am. artifacts there, and they are beautiful too (yes, I photographed them and left them "in situ" like a good boy). :bounce:

Nope, I have not made it a point to visit this park. I would like to, but not yet. Maybe, in '09.
