  • Most of you have heard we had a heck of a snow storm up here at the Curmudge Inn. A pinch over 2 feet of snow fell that was very heavy and wet as the snow storm also had down pours of rain at times. This video is about the damage around the property and the trails. At the time of the release of this video we have only cleared about 1/4 of the down trees on the trails.

    I'm always amazed at how something so beautiful can be so destructive! We always see our trees bowing over the trails from the weight of the snow. Must have been a thick wet snow for you guys. Wow! Good luck with the cleanup! ❤️✌️🇨🇦🇺🇸

      @curmudgeinnak  4 วันที่ผ่านมา +1

      It is always a balance between beauty and destruction. We had heavy snow mix with down pours of rain. Then it flash froze after I filmed this. It is a crazy winter that is for sure.

    When it comes to falling trees around your house, “Almost” only counts in horseshoes, hand grenades and Napalm.

    Oh wow Sarah and Rob that is a ton of wet heavy snow...That kind of snow is like moving thick wet cement Here where I live in Oregon it is supposed to start snowing tonight. You sure lost a lot of trees. The sound of trees breaking is such a crazy sound. I have heard it living in Mississippi during an ice storm and living in Texas during a snow/ice storm. Thank you for sharing the sights and sounds of you Alaska snow blizzard.

    • @curmudgeinnak
      @curmudgeinnak  7 วันที่ผ่านมา +1

      Now the snow has set up like cement. Hard to move it. However getting it off the roofs was a bit easier with it like this. I just broke off large chunks and let it roll off the roof. :-) Have an amazing Day

    • @curmudgeinnak
      @curmudgeinnak  7 วันที่ผ่านมา

      I was shocked to walk outside the other morning to find the snow as hard as concrete. It is even harder now that we have had a few days of temps down to -9ºf. Hope you are doing good. :-)

    Wow, that is a crazy amount of ice on the trees. I need to make a trip to our place. I know the trail in has a bunch of trees down according to some neighbors out that way.

    • @curmudgeinnak
      @curmudgeinnak  6 วันที่ผ่านมา

      From what I have heard the folks down on the Chase trail system are getting it al cleared up pretty good. Are you local?

    • @Chris_at_Home
      @Chris_at_Home 6 วันที่ผ่านมา

      @ I live in Meadow Lakes but have a place up the Talkeetna Bluffs trail. People that are out there have been clearing the trail for days. Also liquid cooled sleds aren’t getting any cooling because the trail is all ice. When I lived there and worked remote I had a Trail RMK geared down some with a studded track, never had problems like that. Our trail off the main trail is over 1/4 mile long and I’m sure there will be some trees down going out there. The last few years there has always some dead spruce across it when we show up.
