Montello Snow

This is JT stuck on Pilot Valley road trying to help Rich who was stuck 1/4 mile up.

Facebook post Monday Jan 23 Driving from SLC airport.  JT  "80 was pretty bad in places and Pequot for sure. Past the folks working on the RR switch on 233 . Wonder if they are moving yet ? Oh yeah . Very windy here."

Tuesday Jan 24 late afternoon:
"We are all out now. I got stuck just past my back driveway in front of the Bryant's and Rich was about a quarter mile in front. Troy and Curt came out with the backhoe and pulled us out."

Tammy Price "They plowed from the interstate to the JLJ Ranch turn off. We had thought it might be better for us to come home that way but sounds just as bad as our way before they plowed. "

Spike and Nancy pictures stuck up by their place.  3 ft drifts. a big mess.

The main feeling in Montello and Pilot Valley after today. Please excuse the language!

The Sun beaming down on us!

This picture was taken by our neighbor Jusitna Folletz. The sun is shinning down from the clouds on Horseshoe Flats, also called Area 52 and our property. Very surreal. It was a chilly morning as it got down to 42. Life in the high desert is always a struggle, but the natural beauty is amazing.

This area is still beautiful April 24, 2016

Merry Christmas everyone

Sorry to say I did not make it out there for Christmas this year. I hope to be there to visit sometime soon. Health wise all is good.

Weather in Maryland has been unseasonably warm, where I see Pilot Valley is dealing with a severe cold spell.

Just want to wish everyone a Happy New Year, and if you didnt know I am a huge redskins fan so Hail to the Redskins!!!
