Day 145: Ten days ago, there wasn't enough snow in Longmire Campground to rise above the welts of your boots. Today, the path to the office was flanked by berms three feet high. I went out at lunchtime with intent to walk to the back gate, but when I reached the turnoff to the wastewater management plant and stepped out of the wheel ruts, I post-holed up to my knees. My walk was cut short by a mile, and perhaps that was for the best because the snow was melting quickly under a steady fall of rain. Nature gives, Nature takes away. It is the cycle of things.
