Winter is the Time for Comfort

“Winter is the time for comfort, for good food and warmth, for the touch of a friendly hand and for a talk beside the fire: it is the time for home.” – Edith Sitwell

We had a small taste of winter’s beauty during our snowmobile excursion with Selkirk Powder at Schweitzer Mountain near Sandpoint, Idaho and we want more.

Lake Tahoe? Switzerland? Park City? Iceland? Banff? We’d like to go now where winter is in its prime and shout on the mountain: Let it snow, let it snow, let it snow!

For all those who live in a place with four seasons, you may grumble having to shovel your driveway on bitterly frozen mornings, but count your blessings as wintertime offers truly breathtaking scenery unlike any other time of the year.
