Great post, love the photos too
@KarenVChin super sister. Thanks for sharing with us.
Really enjoy all that snow in the mountains!
I can imagine the silence then in the evening: hearing only the sounds of the forest must be really relaxing.
I am glad you had such fun family days @KarenVChin !
It would also be nice to spend Christmas in such a beautiful place: it is a dream for many Europeans where Christmas combined with cold and snow is a must!
Thanks for sharing this memories with us!
Bye,
David
@FaridTDF - it always makes me smile when I think about where you live and your environment during the winter.
Compared to you, I can drive up, see, and play in the snow for several hours to several days and then drive home.
As I told you before, when I think of a Patagonia, I think of the outdoor sports company, not the actual place!
I would imagine the tourists who do visit Patagonia during the winter are snow adventurers - people who like to cross country ski, hike, ice fish.
Up here in Tahoe the weather does not get to -20C, maybe at most -10C at night!
I was encouraged by you and couldnât pass up on a sale. My feet will be warm, comfy, and dry (waterproof snow boots) for the upcoming winter season.
As you know me, I am far from being a âsnow adventurist,â more like a whimpy California. LOL. I like to play, but no need to rough it or camp in it! I am more of sit by the fire and drink hot cocoa with marshmallows, but look good doing it. = )
Cheers,
Karen
@marcorp - where do you live? I would imagine scrapping ice on your windshield can be a drag if you are doing it on a daily basis.
Where you caught up in the Polar Vortex in February?
Cheers,
Karen
@KashifMisidia - thanks for sharing your videos links. I would say you should go up to just experience it.
Learning how to ski is like learning how to balance. You can go learn with the kids on what we call the âbunny hillâ
- gentle slope. They will teach you how to properly fall.
It is a unique experience gliding on snow. Hard to describe, but you will be laughing a lot as you learn and to stand up, keep your balance.
There is sense of accomplishment once you can actually ski.
Keep us posted!
Cheers,
Karen
That is A LOT of snow @Dub81 ! You must have had the snow plouger on speed dial this winter!
Sounds like you will be having skiing until July like Tahoe.
I know the guys I rented some of snow gear in the Bay Area were amazed by my photos. They were telling me that the rental business has been great for them. Last year was amazing. This year was even better. After so many years of drought, anyone related to the snow and ski tourism is very happy!
I can imagine it can get real tiring living through it day-to-day though. Did you have to deal with the Polar Vortex?
Cheers,
Karen
@Mutaz1 - woww, I never thought Jordan can have snow! Do you live high in the mountains?
Tahoe is over 6,000 ft in elevation. At some of the surrounding ski resorts it can reach 9,000 ft.

@davidhyno , what is really quiet about our cabin is that there was hardly anyone around us. Many of the homes / cabins are rentals in the area where we were staying at. So, it was quiet 24/7, except for us loud people playing in our backyard.
Do you live near snow? I know @ErmesT does, being close to the Italian Alps. Do you partake in winter sports?
Cheers,
Karen
@KarenVChin I love snow, but I have never experienced snow. I followed you on Facebook and I enjoyed the trip.
hello @KarenVChin ⊠yeah often every year many location in Jordan has snow , my place is the highest location in AMMAN the Capital of Jordan we are near 1500 meter. the winter is so cold, rainy and snowy âŠ
Esas botas son increĂbles, por varios motivos, el precio es uno, y las caracterĂsticas tĂ©cnicas para usar aquĂ en la Patagonia (jajaj no la marca, sino la regiĂłn) son mĂĄs que suficiente, generalmente no tenemos -20 Âș C @KarenVChin , serĂĄs bien venida por aquĂ si decides visitar Ushuaia, el fin del mundo.

@KarenVChin Looks like soooo much fun! Love the doggo joining in on the action
White snow world always impress human what beauty is a lot.
so lucky that there is so much snow this year!
Very lucky! We could use it fot sure itâs funny people always complain about the snow but without it we wouldnât have full resivors and no drinking water or water for the farms big years like this make a huge difference!
Nice post! I love the pic with snow on rooftop and balacony
Good Day @KarenVChin
That was a really great post. It looks like heaven literally and that house all covered up in snow is a heavenly abode. I wish to visit such a beautiful place once in a lifetime. Thanks for sharing such an awesome post
