Snow Day

On August 27th, in the middle of the supposed dry season, we had the first real snow I’ve seen in Carhuamayo.  Not thunder hail, not crazy frost, for real flaky fluffy snow.  I got Elka out on an early morning dog walk.









Unfortunately, as the day went on it got to 32.1 degrees and began to pour the coldest rain imaginable.  I had to go out to do some work with the health post, and this is how I dressed. 



I had on a tshirt, thermal, heavy fleece, raincoat, scarf, hat, and two pairs of pants.  It looks like I stuck my head in Predator’s mouth.
