Bears Don’t Hibernate

Bears do crawl into a cave and essentially sleep away the winter months, but what they’re doing is not hibernating, at least not in the true sense. Hibernation is the sleep-like process that involves a depression of metabolic rate, body temperature and breathing rate that many animals enter...

Do Bears Really Hibernate?

When we think about strategies animals use to survive the winter, we often picture birds flying south and bears hibernating in caves. However, not many animals truly hibernate, and bears are among those that do not. Bears enter a lighter state of sleep called torpor.

Lakers aren’t trout neither.
They're both native.

Has anyone been paying attention to the weather in PNW?
Ya should

I don’t know about PNW, but Utah is pretty awesome right now.

15 inches so far at Alta from the storm that started on Monday night. Could be another 6 inches or so in the next 24 hours. The initial snow was on the heavy side. Looking forward to tomorrow since the last 4-5 inches came down after temps dived into single digits.

My boots and skis are under there somewhere. Near Devil's Playground off the Supreme lift.

What a difference a day makes . . . Alta Lodge locker room exit on April 11 and April 12

Park City/Canyons, similar pictures, With 21 inches in past 36 hours and more this morning, looks and feels like mid-winter. I wish I'd taken a few pics of the golf course on Monday lol.

Tuesday’s Big O’s mudline out of the Niagara looks, from space, like an alligator getting ready to chomp something big...
