Here's hoping that it does thaw a bit. I drove past them, heading south last weekend, and they were plastered. It's snowed a fair bit more since then.
The Dark Mountains mountain marathon is taking place there, overnight this coming Saturday, and I've stupidly entered the damn thing. I could really do without having to try to wade through drifts.
