ancient tales of ancient trails

                                   This picture shows the roads inBHA                                         this is my cabin in BHA                                         This is my neighbor' cabin showing a cornice of snow                                  ...

               I went on a snowshoe trip down and along the Rio Grande river.  I went up river not quite two miles.  It was such beautiful scenery along the way as all the mountains and ridges all around the valley  were buried in snow.  there was about 36 inches of snow i was traveling over so all the fences were buried.  Usually in a normal snow year one has to cross the fence some how but this year icould just step over the last strand of barb wire that was barely sticking out of the snow.

           These pictures are all of BHA  area houses.  There is about 36 inches of snow on the level              This is the front porch of my cabin located in BHA                       This is the river road that goes my cabin down river to other houses                          This is one of my neighbor's house with lots of snow piled up from the roof                                 Another neighbor's cabin            ...

               I always wanted a blog for Bristol Head Acres Mineral County Colorado and for this March of 2019 in the San Juan mountains of southern Colorado it is a record snow year.  I hope to post many many pictures of BHA and the  surrounding area all through the months of March April May June July and August. Mainly i would like to document just how long it takes to melt out this year if it even will all melt out this year.  I keep telling everyone that it is not going to melt this year.  so we will wait and see.
