The #GiffordPinchot #NationalForest was another experience I'll never forget. There were beautiful rivers and mountains, as well as areas where the road was hemmed in by tall trees. #cycling #bicycle #bicycletouring

My 2026 challenge has officially begun!
I want to build a snowman in each month without leaving my home state of Washington and January's snowman has been completed.
I've made these little snowmen as late as August in the past but this year I want to do build one every month that I can.
They're a little lumpy due to the snow texture being bad for building but I was able to do so that's all that matters. I waited as late as I could this month hoping for some fresher snow and not having to head so far out to do it but it been a really warm and dry January so far.
I made them at the McClellan Viewpoint off of Curly Creek Road in the Gifford Pinchot National Forest. Elevation of about 2400ft (~730m)

You want to know how to (further) radicalize an old Boy Scout? You want to shove me headlong into "chaining myself to a tree" territory? This right here is it. 💔 #GiffordPinchot #QT https://mstdn.social/@junesim63/114693231993890614
