Driving down Horsethief Canyon Road toward Temescal Mountains on east side of I-15. (WeAreTV.org photo)
It was predicted for more than a week, but when Temescal Valley residents awoke New Year’s Eve morning, we were not sufficiently prepared for the amazing sight that greeted us. The hillsides and mountains on both sides of the valley were cloaked in white, with a whole bunch of the wet, wonderful stuff deposited in the Horsethief Canyon Ranch community.
Here are few photos and if you’d like to add yours to this slide show, email them to WeAreTV.org@gmail.com. Please include your name and where the photo was taken.
