The Coburg Hills as Seen From Springfield

By tomorrow the Coburg Hills will be whiter as it is supposed to snow quite a bit at that elevation, which is up to 2000 feet. We might get up to an inch here at 500 feet elevation, but I am not counting on it. We were expecting the same yesterday. I enjoy the Coburg Hills every season of the year. The forest and stream are beautiful and the view is wonderful. The view of the Hills from the valley is also pretty, as you can see here.

It is sometimes exciting to drive up there when the snow is deeper. I remember backing down a hillside when I found the road completely covered at the top. The road was on the side of a hill and I had to back down around a corner, with hill on the right and open space on the left. Thank heavens I have done a bit of backing in my life so it was not a problem. That time the snow was fairly deep and, even though I have four wheel drive, I wasn't ready to break trail when the road was completely covered. I figured it was easier to back down. I was alone too, so didn't want to get stuck.
