Mountain Trapper your place is so beautiful...and almost unimaginable to a flatlander in farm country.

We couldn't imagine living anywhere else. But living here does come with its challenges.

I think I got a little chilled today. I fell flat on my face twice while hiking up to the pump house. Once I got back to the house I've been covered up in a wool blanket on the couch next to the wood stove. After sleeping a couple hours I'm finally warm again and feeling a little better. Tomorrow morning I'll get the tractor out and start clearing the road to the pump house.

High temp was 4 degs today. Just got back in from the pump house. Had to hike a quarter mile in snow shoes to get there. The generator started right up, we have water now. I think the generator is programed to attempt 2 starts, if it doesn't start after the second attempt it shuts down and shows a fault. Then I noticed that the pilot light was off inside the pump house. Fortunately the sun was out today so it kept the inside of the pump house at 40 degrees. Anyway everything is back to normal now.View attachment 173386

Looks like Montana or Wyoming, or Idaho. Also looks like the mountains outside my house or even my back yard in the city. Mount Baldy looks even worse than that.
