Lone Pine Peak
The Alabama Hills are dwarfed by the massive granite peaks of the Eastern Sierra.
An approaching storm begins to obscure the mountains in fog and snow flurries.
Soon our view of the Sierra would completely vanish.
Luckily, there was just enough time in between storms to capture some great pictures!
Nicole takes our little snowman for a walk... he didn't get to far!
Perfect ending to a perfect day!
