Wicked and dangerous winter weather at the lookout tower [View all]

I'll start here in GD. But from now on I'll post news-type photos here and artsy photos in the photo group.

Below are photos of the hell winter weather that hit me the first three days in the fire lookout (5/23 - 5/26). It really sucked.

I'm in Bend thawing out.

Late afternoon on Friday 5/25 - 4-inch ice feathers
