We had even more snow last night as well as temperatures of minus 10 degrees Celsius. And guess when the main heater decided to have a hiccup. Luckily, the service technician is coming in tomorrow.
Apart from the cold, the weather was lovely and so we took the chance to go hiking at Westermark Forest near the town of Syke, a place that has been featured before on this blog, most recently here.
Of course, I also took my camera along, so have some photos of snowy winter woods:

A bit of (not entirely harmless) winter fun. A slow moving car pulls children on sleighs through the forest. Very definitely not legal according to German road traffic regulations (but then this is not a public road), but quite common in this area. I’ve also seen this done with tractors.

A hunter’s look-out in the middle of the forest. Look-outs like this one are scattered all over the Westermark forest.

More great shots as always, Cora. Love the hunter’s blind.
Thanks. There are quite a few hunters in our region and so those look-outs are a common sight in forests and at the edge of fields.
Oh, what beautiful photos!
Thanks. I enjoyed yours of wintery California as well.
