Three days ago (Oct 1) Tone & I hiked to the top of Breidalseggi, the
highest peak in Raulandsfjell (1568 m asl): The weather was _really_
freaky; 15-20 C, no wind, clear blue skies.

Today the same mountain is covered in snow. :-)

Was 85F in Bozeman yesterday and 70 right now, but several inches of
white stuff predicted for the upper southern range (9000'+) and
maybe even a couple of inches down in West Yellowstone (~6600')
starting Thursday. Will have to see how much sticks, because
nighttime have been well above freezing, even up high.

Soda Springs, CA, near Donner Summit, October 6.

Apparently this x-c resort, Royal Gorge, has fallen into
receivership,

Ouch. Looks like I will be mostly backcountry-skiing this season.
Just hiked in the area past weekend. Patches of snow at 8000 and above

About 5" in Bozeman yesterday and looks from the cams like West got a
few. Not enough or dry enough to open anything. Unfortunately, looks
like nothing in the offing yet for next week but temps up into the
40s. West Yellowstone fest is just 2+ weeks away, so here's to
hoping..
