Celebrate the Small Things: Winter Beauty in the Columbia Basin

As we do not normally get a lot of snow in Desert Aire (over Christmas the ground was covered), I'm celebrating snow on the Umtanums. I see these out my windows. Aren't they beautiful?



View across our river/lake - Priest Rapids Recreation area

One of the roads I drive. 




Golf course clubhouse in distance. Yep, that's sage brush in front.

 

There are hiking trails in the Umtanums, but hikers should know there are rattlesnakes during the summer. I think I'll pass on hiking the Umtanums and just enjoy the beauty they offer from my window. 

Happy Weekend Everyone!!
