Skywatching for Snowbombs!

See the various globs up there between me and the contrail? We call them snowbombs. They are just waiting for the sunshiny day to melt them just enough to be slippery and slide off the limb to bomb some unwitting hiker below.

Perhaps the snowiness is more evident in this shot which is a little less in silhouette. 

 

Back to Skywatching.

See you there again soon.
