Just 45 minutes up the 2 freeway, and on the Angeles Crest Highway, and we're 7,000 feet above it all, enjoying quite a bit of snow.
That was our adventure on Saturday, as the Blogger Kid 2.0 and I grabbed a few sleds and headed up the nearby mountains, inside the Angeles National Forest, in order to have some fun with the cold stuff. We probably could have used slightly thicker jackets and gloves, because we weren't expecting *this much* snow. But it was well worth the drive up.
At the lower elevations, the crowds were surprisingly heavy. Apparently people were itching to get out of their homes. But with so many people further down the mountain, I'm not sure safety precautions were being met. Up the mountain and in the snow, however, the number of people was tiny — and we were able to have fun, safely away from anyone else.
The snow will be up here for a little bit longer, thanks to all the rain we've had so far this spring. If you're getting cabin fever, I'd suggest you get up there. A few more pics:
