Still winter on the first day of spring
Early March photos by Dave Bell
March 20, 2019
Wednesday March 20th is officially the first day of spring according to the calendar, but Pinedale is still under feet of snow. Daylight is getting longer and we’ve had some gorgeous days with beautiful blue skies.
Hikers, we’re still months away from the high country snow melting off. Jackass Pass to the Cirque of the Towers in the Wind River Mountain Range usually doesn’t open up until around the 4th of July. Saw some geese flying over last week and heard rumors yesterday that someone in town said they heard a robin – all signs that our migratory birds are starting to return. (Let us know if you hear/see a bluebird, sandhill crane, or hummingbird support@pinedaleonline.com.)
