    Ohhh I know what you mean, we just have little bits here and there now. The mountain behind us has no more snow at all. But the beast has just a few spots, and its all green now. Amazing how fast the mountains change,,,,,

    Fabulous. Makes me wanna ski! Mountains are so darn sexy, with or without the snow. Fantastic. Living in flat Essex I miss rugged landscapes...oh well, off to the south of France in the summer so I will get a good fix of rugged landscapes then.

    Your landscape is equally beautiful whether there's snow on the mountains or not but I do think those most recent photographs are breathtaking. :stew1:

    Thanks all. EJ, wishing you a lovely holiday. You probably think I'm mad but I'm not very fond of skiing.

    Bye, Bye snow. But those mountains are beautiful even without their white covering.

    It's fun to see the snow disappearing during spring and summer, but not so much fun watching it creeping further and further down in autumn.

    Stunning! With or without the snow. Postcard perfect is right. Hey, you should make some Droopy and then sell them. Thanks for sharing.
