First day at the cabin. The lake is completely frozen. Went skiing with the kids, took a few pictures, went back to sit in front of the fireplace and drink hot chocolate. Spring will be nice, but only after a few wintry winter vacation days.

Is the news about Norway having less snow than before true? Beautiful photo btw.
December was way too warm for snow, earnest on record by far, whereas Jan and Feb have been really really cold and dry. But in general, yes, climate change means less snow, as it's warmer. at least until AMOC collapses.
Curious, how was your season last year? Here on the eastern side of Canada we've been having a very cold and very snowy winter. A few weeks of -20 and below weather.
Our snow last year was nearly non existent if I remember correctly. Makes me curious how much our seasons might just differ in general with the new ocean patterns.
I also don't do cross country skiing, so I'd be curious to know how your ski patterns end up looking so curved, as opposed to both skis on the ground and straight in your photo. The patterns you've made over the lake there are mesmerizing.
Not my tracks, but quite sure they're from ice skates.
snow last year, I have no idea, sorry, I moved back this summer... but if you're really interested, this web page has all the info you'd need https://www.senorge.no/
