Port Carling, Muskoka snowfall

With a truck that couldn't make it up the hill, and impatient drivers cluttering the road, many worked together to get the road cleared and the truck on its way. I was directing traffic, as cars were trying to pass the stalled truck. I was afraid there was going to be an accident! I have often lauded our Emergency Crews, but these guys all expended time, gas, and energy in helping the trucker out. They really know what they are doing! I was fascinated with their expertise! The snow was cleared and things are nearly back to normal after schools were closed for 3 days.

Oh wow. You'd think the stores and such would be inaccessible with that much snow. I heard from a relative that recently the snow melted though.

It is meltling, but there is much slush. The roads themselves are fabulous in most parts of our region. The lake hasn't melted!

Isn't it fun though a little when ppl come out to enjoy the insanity!!

It is true! Everyone was laughing, supervising, and helping, except for the drivers in a hurry! The important thing is the safety. People just understand that everything stops!

That is a lot of snow so far! Hopefully the area gets a bit of a break from it for a while.

Sunny and cold today! It could be worse!

Port Carling is lovely.

Of course, I have never been there in the winter but the summer is fantastic.

@19pink19 same with me first time seeing snow up there. when my grandparents where looking for a cottage it was in the winter time. when they finally found ours the snow was so high. that it fully buried it.
