    Monsoon really going this year, Badger. Rained every day for a month or more, and not just our normal afternoon shower.

    Pike had light dusting this morning, after a stormy night.

    We've missed most of the monsoon so far this year. I think there is something to do with the way our little valley is nestled in between N/S ridges that kind of diverts the rain.
     
    otherhalftw and Hammer166 Thank this.

    I was just thinking about you last night! @otherhalftw
    In fact, I was just about to file a missing persons,er missing poster, on you! Glad to see that won't be necessary!
    Now this has nothing to do with chaining, but we had one heck of a wind storm around the area last night Lots of damage, some flooding in some areas. Here are a few pictures:

    Ok, I'll admit I had to look that one up. Never heard of it before, but it looks like it would be fun!
