I went on a drive through some local mountains. I didn't really have a reason, other than I'd heard there was snow and wanted to see it. About half-way through the range, I pulled up to a ranger station/rest stop for a break. While I was having a snack, I saw a sign marking the start of a hiking trail. I was already in solid boots and thought, what the hell, when in Rome.

I didn't get very far; I had no snow gear and barely any layers, so I turned back as soon as I reached an incline steep enough to make my feet slip. However, along the way I'd remembered my brief stint in photography and had my phone at the ready in case I saw something worth taking. There were a few good sights, and I figured they were good enough to share somewhere. And since this is basically my only outlet, here you go, in no particular order.

This one was all the way at the rest stop, overlooking the range. It was taken before I set out, while the fog was especially dense.
