STILL SNOW ON THE YELLOWSTONE MOUNTAINS

Snow-covered mountain in Yellowstone May 15, 2013

 It may be mid-May, but as you can see from this photo that I took on May 15, 2013, there are still some mountains in Yellowstone National Park that have ample snow. 

I have not been in the park since it opened for the summer season but I have spoken to people that have been and I can assure you that Lake Yellowstone is still frozen over. 

Amazingly enough, there are still many places in our area that have sizable patches of snow remaining.

I expect that at least by mid-June, all the snow will have disappeared.

Just thought you might like to see that yes it is mid-May and yes we do still have snow on the mountain tops.
