Between October 1st and the end of December, we have measured more snow (34.5&#8243;) and precipitation (6.5&#8243;) than during all of last winter!

		<description><![CDATA[If you haven&#8217;t experienced poconip, or ice fog, at Mono Lake, I recommend it. It usually happens when it&#8217;s sunny in most other parts of the Eastern Sierra, and the ground is frozen or snow-covered.
