Carr Peak in December

I'm dressed in arctic gear. I'm finishing up two left-over cheeseburgers. I'm wearing wool socks, gortex pants and my famed Montrail gortex boots that don't get enough wear in Arizona.

It's 40F outside in the shade. The sun hasn't quite risen high enough to warm the ground from the nighttime lows, but if I can go by the forecast, it's going to be the last warm day of the year.

I'm leaving Sadie behind. The two older dogs will be more suitable for the cold. Sara especially likes to romp around in icy mounds.

Today: Considerable cloudiness. High 66F. Winds SW at 5 to 10 mph.
Tonight: Considerable cloudiness. Low near 45F. Winds SW at 5 to 10 mph.
Tomorrow: Cloudy with a few showers. Becoming windy. Thunder possible. High 57F. Winds SW at 25 to 35 mph. Chance of rain 30%.
Tomorrow night: Windy with some rain showers. Thunder is possible early. Low 37F. Winds WSW at 25 to 35 mph. Chance of rain 50%.
Wednesday: Windy with morning clouds, then afternoon sun. Highs in the upper 40s and lows in the low 30s.
Thursday: More sun than clouds. Highs in the low 50s and lows in the low 30s.
Friday: Partly cloudy. Highs in the mid 50s and lows in the low 30s.
