Trees and snow fog
As the day went on, a trickle of warmth settled over the snowpack, and in response to the arrival of above-freezing temperatures, the white landscape turned gray with dense fog. It's misty, and, to the photographer's eye, mystical, as the hard winter landscape turns soft, even ghostly. The skier and snow-lover in me is not happy about this development, which can unravel a white blanket quickly. But the snow fog makes for great images, so I won't complain. Well, not much.
