Sacrificing a Thousand Virgins

We had more rain and snow starting on Friday and through the weekend.  It was our usual respectful snow, leaving the roads and living spaces alone and going to the mountains.  And if there is snow in the mountains, you know what that means...de-I snow hiking!  And if de-I hikes in the snow, we're looking a virgin snow to sacrifice to the Magical Unicorn Pony God of Travel!

In my car waiting for Wild Bill to arrive.

Looks promising

Yes at about 7000 feet we leave first hikers behind and hit the virgin snow.

Each step I intone the mantra

"I sacrifice these thousands of virgin snow flakes to placate the Magical Unicorn Pony God of Travel!"

I will stuff enough virgin sacrifices down the little horse gods throat!

  Beautiful view when we reach our destination.
