Christmas Weather

A Christmas eve of snow showers gave way to a Christmas morning rain shower in parts of the Bella Coola Valley.  While we weren't able to get a view of any of the mountain tops to see how much fresh snow came down, I think it's been quite a bit, because you could catch a glimpse of the snow line which seemed to be around 3000' today and there was a good amount of precipitation last night and this morning.  I heard several avalanches rumbling in the background out of the clouds which is always a good sign of lots of wet deep snow.  A good day for a hike along the river and lots of relaxing and family time.  Hope you enjoyed a nice Christmas day.  Grizzly
