Graniteville, California

A historic mining town in the Sierra Nevada mountains

Spring of ’23

| May 8, 2023

It’s officially Spring. The county plowed all the way into town (thank you!). There is still plenty of snow and mud but I spotted some daffodils breaking through. The creek is roaring and it’s warming up!

The Winter of ’23

| March 31, 2023

This winter will go down in the history books for the monumental amount of snow that it has brought to the Sierras. The drought is officially over. These photos were taken in March. It just snowed 3-4 more feet this past weekend.

Winter 2021

| February 15, 2021

Last year there was not much snow in February but this year there was a big wind storm that unfortunately did some damage (flattened the outhouse at the schoolhouse), followed by a blizzard that brought in 5′ of snow. Here are some photos taken between 2/6-2/9
