Back up to 30's around here.

Got down to -6F but that was it.

These temperature swings are a bummer.

Reporting in from Girdwood, AK.

Moved down after my summer in Talkeetna in hopes of enjoying an active winter.

Its been somewhat chilly down here from what I had expected being so close to the ocean. Not alot of snow either.
