We have been based in the tropics in the French West Indies now for a few weeks. More on that to come in the future. But all this heat and humidity has me dreaming of colder climates. Here is a shot of some incredibly deep powder in Hokaido, Japan . It was taken on a slackcountry snowboarding trip at Asahidake. The silence one experiences when in deep powder snow has to be experienced to be believed. The powder snow has an amazing sound damping effect. I have cracked over 3000 followers here on steem . While that might not sound like a lot compared to traditional social media platforms it is significant compared to the number of active users on the platform. Thanks again to everyone who has followed me since I joined almost two years ago. It certainly has been an interesting experiment in social economics if nothing else.
