All these years I thought that Snow's Canyon was above Saint George, Utah -- until this last winter, that is. After all the snow and snow "removal", most of the streets in our neighborhood were turned into snow canyons. For awhile, it was very difficult for two cars to get through at the same time. Luckily, the removal crews came through again and made it possible for opposing traffic. But, intersections were turned into a game of "Dare" or sneak out and hope an idiot is coming like at full speed.
This is looking down Zappe from Peck.
Looking from our deck across Klaune
The intersection of Cherry and Klaune. Notice the
stop sign and street signs above the plowed snow.
This is looking down Eklutna -- name sounds like
a medical condition or an operation.
Another byway in our neighborhood. The street
is call Grand Larry because it definitely isn't.
Eklutna and 3rd Ave. You can see why the intersections
are bit dicey -- you have to pull out to see if anyone is coming.
I don't know if this little road was named for
Frank Zappa or not - Zappa and Duben.
Another shot of the intersection above.
The snow is so high that the fence around the yard
(which is already 3 feet above street level) is covered.
Notice that the sidewalk is also plowed. Some of
the embankments between street and sidewalk are so
high that you can't see the yard behind.
South side of another street canyon.
This is heading north on Peck...
Further north on Peck...
This "native" apartment complex (just off Peck) is where one of
our new ward members lives. We have been doing
the new member lessons with her.
