Freelander, I think the 'are you cold' comments came from the kilt, I was wearing a jumper when not walking and still got the comments. It's the same old misconception that a kilt is cold, even if you have 8 yards of wool around you.

Glen, the snow was much thicker earlier in the week, we would not have driven in without a 4WD and snow chains, but I guess this snow in nothing to what you get in Colorado, or David in Norway.

Robert, I didn't get to the top of the mountain to wave, conditions were harsh so we kept to the lower trails.

Cthulhu, sorry about that showoff in the kilt, I'll keep him out of it in future.

Andrew, if you come over I shall love to show you our lovely state and do some hiking, provided God keeps my strength up for years to come.
