[tundra zone]

If you are reading this blog from a location in upstate NY then you already know that winter has arrived and that the snow is serious. If you are nowhere near upstate NY you should know that once you live in a snowbelt area and survive some winters you are pretty well equipped to live anywhere. Right now in the ROC you can cross country ski (or snowshoe) anywhere- even downtown. Wind chills are approaching negative numbers and there's blizzard conditions when the wind kicks up. But believe me we are some tough tundra warriors up here- we might drive a little slower but the weather doesn't stop us.
