The following photos were taken recently on Wheeler Street in Leavenworth.  The tracks go through a residential driveway and head towards town.  Wheeler Street is located just off of Ski Hill Drive and extends towards Tumwater Mountain.  In addition to a handful of homes, this road is also lined with fields.  A variety of wildlife can be spotted here due to it's proximity to the mountains, but it's a little close for comfort when it comes to big cats.

My what a difference a couple of days can make. Washington State DOT is reporting a mix of snow and rain on highway 2. Stevens Pass is closed in both directions and the town of Leavenworth is coated in a sheet of ice due to freezing rain. While we scrape the ice crust from our cars and await word from the DOT on a possible re-opening of the pass, enjoy this photo from Monday, January 23rd. Adam McKenney shreds the pow on a sunny day.

Video from Grant Domer, filled with powder shots at Stevens Pass.  If you haven't gotten your fill during this storm cycle, don't worry-there is more snow on the way.   NWAC is predicting a short lived warm-up today followed by 2 inches of precip on Wednesday and 1 inch on Thursday.  Yahoo!

Icicle TV Producer Russ Ricketts sends greetings from the arctic.  In addition to playing with thermometers in sub zero weather, Russ divides his time between working on the North Slope in Alaska (aka the northern most tip of the continent) and living in our most awesome town of Leavenworth, Washington.
