^^ Nice wintry scenes! Also Tom and Cambium. These are some steep cross-country ski routes. It was a good idea to divide the traffic.

You don't necessarily need to post pics of plants on here. They just have to be from this spring.

Impressive stuff. I don't think I've ever seen fully leafed trees this early.
Pics from earlier this month from a friend, just to show you the rather poor state of the snowpack this year in the Jura mountains. Pics are from locations around 1000 m asl.
What a difference a week makes: with the March sun now approaching the equinox it felt much warmer yesterday than the 10°C high. Snow is in full melt mode at this point.
Still a fair amount of snow on residential streets.
Sidewalks are a mess: lots of freeze-thaw cycles this time of year.
A channel of meltwater has opened up on the North Saskatchewan River.
South-facing slopes of the river valley are almost completely snow-free thanks to the warm sun.
Too many to comment on. Awesome blend of everything from you guys. Snow, Mountain, City, Greenery, Scenery, River Ice, Road Skiing, ect. Nice pics guys!
From the River on Friday. To the Beach yesterday. To the CT hills today...
Took a trip 1 hour north of me in CT..
March 19, 2017
Temp 30-34°F
Snow Depth 11-13"(279-330mm) with up to 2 foot+(610mm) drifts.
On my way..
Brought a ruler with me. Kept measuring as I hiked. 11.5" here.
Lots of energy wasted because I was sinking in. Slowed me down too. I lost the microspikes off my right shoe. Probably at this spot. lol
Wasn't a lot of foot traffic but was nice there was a trail to follow. I was alone the entire hike up and down. No wildlife either. Mid March they must be itching for ground food!
14 inches there. I know this spot. The trail sits lower than the ground to the right so that's not a drift.
Lots of snow around. Hope there isn't a big rain storm or rapid melting.
Love the Pines and Evergreens, they bring a shade of darkness to the area.
Almost 18 inches here.
I see it
12 inches in that spot. See the ruler?
Slippery inside the tower.
Facing Massachusetts. Beautiful day with a light breeze!
Facing Northwest into NY. Love the trail down below. Wish I had a drone!
On my way back found this. A 2 foot drift. Was I walking 2 feet above the ground?

guys, if it's all snowed and all of the trees are still dead that looks like a winter landscape rather than a spring one
some photos maded from the heavy storm we had in our province just a week ago... the snowed landscape is at about 1300m of altitude (4270ft) and the other one is ... where is the beach? the sea ate it lol!
Nice pictures! Those last few loaded first for me and I thought you had a drone out there. Any summer shots ?
Yup.. here a couple from same spot
