<p>Well maybe not, but it&#8217;s hard not to feel it in the air these days. Mornings are crisp and cool, snow levels are dropping (well sort of&#8230;I think the top of <strong><a title="Mt Rainier Photos" href="http://mackieimages.com/photoblog/?page_id=25+title%3D&amp;album=4&amp;gallery=14">Mt Rainier</a></strong> may have had a dusting recently) and a friend of mine in Whitefish just sent some hiking photos from Glacier National Park and there had to have been at least 3 inches of P&#8230;O&#8230;W&#8230;D&#8230;E&#8230;R!</p>
<p>Yes I love winter, even here in the Pacific northwest. Because for every inch of rain that falls here in Seattle, a foot of snow falls in the Cascades. And since it rains quite frequently here, it also snows&#8230;a lot. I&#8217;m not a resort skier, I hate lines and lift ticket prices are just about absurd. (Relatively speaking that is&#8230;they&#8217;re actually on the cheap end here.) So for myself, and the growing masses, looking for endless face shots, unknown adventures with friends and desolate mountains, the backcountry beckons.</p>
<p>So although winter may in fact not arrive for many months, I just posted (and will be posting more) some <strong><a title="backcountry skiing pictures" href="http://mackieimages.com/photoblog/?page_id=25%20title=#C2">backcountry skiing pictures</a></strong> from seasons past to get everyone in the mood.</p>
