Summer ended.  Fall is taking over.  The leaves are changing colour and temperatures are dropping.  A lot.  This past weekend seemed more like winter than fall with several inches of snow on the ground.  Jen and I decided to see how the high country was taking in the change of season.  Our destination was Mt Audubon, Strelka in tow, or more correctly, towing us up the mountain.  That is, until it got so bitterly cold that she tucked her tail way in between her legs and made it clear to us that she wasn’t having too much fun post holing snow drifts 3-4 times higher than herself.  At that time we turned around, and we quickly warmed up as we descended and found more shelter lower on the mountain and finally in between the trees again.  It may be fall, but it sure feels like winter in the mountains.
