Skiing the Blue Ridge Parkway – Not this time

While we had high hopes of a decent snowfall, it wasn’t enough to enjoy skiing on the Blue Ridge Parkway. It’s still a little early in the year for any significant accumulations, and this storm passed north of us dumping most of the white stuff in eastern Tennessee.

Here’s a photo from last year, or maybe the year before. Every once and a while things come together just right and the parkway becomes a cross-country ski trail. This time, the snow didn’t stick well enough to build up. We’ll try again with the next snowfall.
