Snow Country

Tacoma, Wallace Falls is an easily day trip to the Central Cascades. At only 1,500 feet in elevation at the highest point, this trail is accessible nearly year round. Waterfalls are especially spectacular in the spring and early summer as melting snow feeds them and the entire experience provides blissful relief from the heat in the warmer months. Wallace Falls is actually a series of falls most often referred to as lower, middle and upper falls. Each area has it's own overlook and it's own special

about snow?" She asked, unaware of the ignorance, that seemed to protrude, across her face. "We live in Texas, obviously." I snickered, as she shot me a look of annoyance, "I know." She began as she rolled her eyes, "To better explain it, have you forgotten the feeling of snow, not your mind, but your body, the feeling of it laying in your hands." "I guess?" I shot back a reply, to the sentence, "I don't really miss it that much, it's not like the books or the movies, you pick up a pile of snow, and

I am not Elsa......the cold bothers me. Skiing is one of my favorite activities in the winter. I go as often as I can. Usually about once a year. This year in particular I encountered some pretty cold temperatures on the slopes. I am talking 6 degree weather with wind chill in the negatives. It is difficult to have a good time skiing when my body is so cold I can no longer feel my hands and feet. There are ways to be prepared for cold weather while skiing. Here are some of my tips below.

In the poem Snow by David Berman, it has a unique setting to it sorta. They’re two characters, David and his little brother, Seth. David in his poem talks about how he explains to his brother about how snow angels are made. Also why they’re made that way instead of him just telling his brother the actual truth. The setting is in the winter there is no time. However, it was outside in the field near some water which was frozen. The setting is significant because the poem is called snow. Plus it talks

dissolves into the ice, it will add two components to the solution which provide more interference in preventing the water molecules from freezing.” Salt lowers the freezing point of ice and consequently, the melting point of water, the main component of snow and ice. The salt makes it harder for the water molecules to bond together in their rigid structure. In water, salt is a solute, and it will break into its element. Sand melts ice if it’s heated by the sun. The texture of sand doesn’t melt ice,

Life Hacks Chapter One: Coincidence? Somewhere in Canada… Snow blanketed the ground with a thick layer that seemed to envelope his foot as soon as he put weight on it. Sabertooth curled his lip in a snarl. Every step he took, he sank down into the wet cold of the snow and had to yank his leg out just to have to repeat the action. Needless to say, it was draining what little patience he had. A week had passed of him allowing his prey evade him before boredom set in. It was a cruel game of cat and

sugar? For a fact, almost anything that can be dissolved in water will be able to melt ice. (Lynch, 2016, pg 1). Well, salt is known to be used on icy roads during the winter. Salt affects the freezing point of the ice, which causes the falling snow and the snow that is on the ground to melt more and not freeze less. Like salt, sugar also melts the ice by affecting the freezing point of ice. Both sugar and salt affect the formation of the water molecules when they change the freezing point of the ice
