We call that stuff on the mountains "termination dust" because it means the end of summer. Seems like it's been slower coming than in other years but it's there, creeping closer and closer down the mountain towards us . . .***
Have you got your post submitted for the Write-Away Contest? "Things that scare me" is the topic and I'd love to hear what's got you shivering.

Wow...great shot. I love to see snow on the mountains:) Happy WW.
Termination dust is a pretty good term! (Ooh. Sorry about the word play!)
Termination dust is a brilliant way to describe it. I here you, although, I think you get more cold than I do here in Montreal!
What a lovely shot. And a great explanation. Happy WW!!!
That's gorgeous, in a beautiful-side-of-evil kind of way.
(Shudder.)
What a lovely photo, even if it does signify the end of summer... Happy WW! :)
Perspective! It's great to be exposed to someone else's!
Your photos are always so beautiful! It looks so beautiful but I always hate to see the end of summer.
Gorgeous shot! I don't look forward to winter, but it is beautiful!
what a great shot!! Have a great Wednesday.
It just doesn't get any more beautiful than that. Happy WW!
Beautiful shot. Can you see this from where you live? You must never get tired of looking at that scenery.
Yes, as everyone has already said, this is a Wonderful shot. I have been reading up on your advice on blog stuff, very interesting, thanks!
Today feels like the end of summer here also (north Georgia), it is going to be in the 40s tonight!
Have a great day!
Termination dust. Never heard that -- I like it. y
Gorgeous photo. Here we judge the seasons in part by the behavior and thickness of the fog.
A beautiful picture and my one new thing learned today all wrapped up into one post. Great!
Love that term!
Snow is so lovely. . . in photos!
Dust or not, I cannot imagine getting to see the mountains all the time. Just awesome.
Never heard that phrase before - Love it!
Yes, we have "termination dust" on the Sierras here also. We need to go through this for the needed moisture, but I prefer it to be brief.
