Thanksgiving Morning

 

Alpine Meadows

This photo was taken on November, 27th 2008 from Alpine Meadows.

Last night there was some snow at the higher elevations, this morning the trees up there still have a covering of snow and the sky remains dark and overcast.

Squaw Creek

A similar cloudy and overcast scene existed at Squaw Valley. Taken from the Resort at Squaw Creek golf course you can see Squaw Valley base camp to the right settling under the cable car ride to the hidden mountain top.   

Both scenes are a contrast from down by the Lake where the warm sun is shining through, just shows you what a couple of thousand feet in elevation can do.
