We’re not unusually warm like some areas, it’s about normal. Supposed to be 33 tonight. The coldest Fresno has ever had was 17° (very rare), the typical coldest part of winter is 27-32. The mountains have got lots of snow too.
These were taken by my mountain neighbors recently.
This guy made a home made snowplow, he raises and lowers it with the winch.

Hey, been a while. I noticed the area around shaver/Huntington got some decent snow finally.
how’s it going?
We moved to Idaho last summer so wont be running Dusy anytime soon

65% lolYeah, but what was the humidity.
That's cold.
We were listening to the radio a bit ago and heard the woman saw single digits, I was like what did she say
First scrounge of the yr, well sort of, cost me 35.
It's not new, but it's in much better shape than mine. Mine has some gnarly cracks in the tub that I've repaired with zip ties but broke them back open. The good thing is I made a "liner for it that should fit right in this one.
The things you see in it aren't the cracks, just some ivy or something like that.

Nice scrounge, those 2 wheel wood haulers look like they would work much better than one.

Yes, China Peak Ski Resort has 80 plus inches of snow. Last year the snow in Shaver didn’t accumulate, it melted between storms. It’s not melting between storms this year.
What, is half of California moving to Idaho? I know of others too.
Actually, ID is sitting like #4 on the escape-to list
That said...too many from CA that should have stayed there with their lib BS are slowly destroying this state. The next couple of elections (assuming we have any more) will let us know. In the mean time those of who care are preparing.
Wow, thats high for you guys isn't it.
We're getting a bit of snow here yet. At about 4" now, looks like more at the lakeshore from some lake effect snow.
Only 89% humidity here tonight and 20 degrees lol.
I forgot to hit "post reply" las night lol.
That's humid62f high and 98% humidity in my area yesterday, 55f at the moment. Now I see a snow advisory early Monday morning and at least 9 straight days of wood burning temps.

Morning guys. -30 on the house this morning. Hanging out with coffee now and will run over to the neighbors shop to change oil and rotate tires on the suburban in a bit.
Took a nice gal to the UMD hockey game last night. Third date so things are going well, I think.

Yeah it is on the high side for us. Glad to see you made good progress on the pole barn before you got much snow. Looks like we will be getting more..
30” already at my sons place, he’s going to look at this Saturday
That'll clear some snow!
You cant just put gravel down and expect it to stay . I use geo fabric first then 6"crushed rock basically large splinter rocks then #2 gravel . I've seen people use old polyester rug for fabric worked surprisingly well.
The fabric stops the gravel from sinking into the dirt and keeps the mud from coming up ,also stops weeds to an extent .
We get LOTS of snow, don’t move here, pretty sure we have man eating dinosaurs too.
Might have to move to California to avoid the crowds.
No wonder he carries that 45-70 Marlin! Hey, I hear that Ruger has that gun back in production (Ruger recently purchased Marlin from Remington). Boddington tested one in Guns & Ammo.
The 6” stone and fabric are both good ideas and I would go that route for some projects especially if it would be driven on. The area I put this is over clay that packs like concrete and I graded a slope to it to make sure no water would lay on top of it to soften it. The area is also covered to keep the wood dry.
Between the cover and the fact that all summer the area is full of wood , weeds are not an issue.
Lol. Going to have to watch my back now I sold the 45-70
. Kind of a mistake, mine was an original Marlin, before Remington bought them and kind of sought after. Didn’t realize that until after I listed it. Had 3 calls in first hr, 2 guys said they’d take it sight unseen, listed it for $900, started looking around and average selling price was $1500. Kind of like saws, should keep them all. Oh well live and learn.
Local tackle shop said they just ordered 5 of the new Ruger/ Marlin 45-70’s, they said their cost was $800 so that’s why I listed mine for $900. Bought a mossberg patriot 7mm-08 from them for $400 so I guess I’m still kind of money ahead 
Keep em all !!!! I like that plan!!Lol. Going to have to watch my back now I sold the 45-70
Just like they say, keep them all and let God sort them out, or something like that LOL.
