Dogs on the other hand love it. Drifts are now hard so they can race through the "dunes" instead of falling through. They have race tracks all over the place and lie in wait for someone to run past so that they can attack. Here's some shots from the last couple of days:

Good note though with all the weather is that the show dogs have awesome thick coats ;0) |
I can sympathize with Cindy, we have the same situation here. We also have drifts the dogs can run on without sinking in. In some areas I can walk on them without sinking in. We have waist high drifts. The parking lots in Park City have piles of snow 10 feet high. And that's even though they're hauling snow out of the city in dump trucks.
So if Cindy is giving away snow, I'd like to do the same. Between the two of us, we've got plenty to go around.
