Eagleview Observatory in the snow

Got some lovely clear skies up at Eagleview Saturday night, then some snow fell after midnight and then cleared to a beautiful blue sky in the morning...BLOODY cold though -8C Then we got snow bogged on the way home, while still on our property but about 1km from the house ...had to stay an extra night and let some snow melt to get out....luckily it didn't snow more over night and did melt enough by 2pm Mon, to make it down that steep track section..without sliding into the gate posts either side of the track you can see there next to me but below me in the last photo

The joys of having a mountain observatory
