White Hills

Snow in the Sierra foothills is uncommon and short lived. After Christmas, an unusual storm dropped the snowline under 3,000 feet. These photos were taken December 31st 2010, along Putnam Canyon trail.

Looking down toward Three Rivers and the rest of Tulare County:It was 'partially cloudly' that day:

The road taken:

It took alot of rain to make the sky that shade of blue:
