We loved our first winter trip to Sleeping Bear Dunes along Lake Michigan!

Pierce Stocking Scenic Drive

Lake Michigan Overlook (stop #9 along Pierce Stocking) - no going down to the bottom of the 452' dune this time!

Beach behind D.H. Day Campground (accessed while skiing Heritage Trail) - Pyramid Point way off in the distance

Brrr - the wind was fierce! Great snow drifts, though.

12/21/20 - Took these on a quick winter solstice jaunt up Four Mile Trail in Yosemite. With an alpine start, I made it out of the Bay Area, up the trail, and back home in time for dinner. The trail was all but deserted which is unheard of these days in Yosemite (and which was a total delight). TWO.JPGSIX.JPGone.JPGTHREE.JPG

hard to take a bad photo there...but that last one of HD is exceptional. Thanks for sharing!
 
Not very backcountry, but a nice morning skin up peak9 at breck with a fiery sunrise over the divide.

I just drool at where you call home...if there weren't a border I'd have already moved there.
That pesky border! Seems like no hope for a mid-late April desert trip for us. Fingers crossed for October. In fact, we would love to spend 2-3 months of winter in the desert sometime. The grass is always greener...
