Hi, what type of clothing should i pack for Grand Canyon amp; Yosemite during late Dec? Thanks!? -

Of course you need to dress in layers and you need to be prepared for very cold ,very windy , very snowy and very sunny when it isn t snowingBtw Current Grand Canyon AZ 86023 weatherH 32F L 5F and sunny

Layered and very warm with a good heavy coat. The Canyon is in winter in AZ and UT, so you might be warm in day but once you are in the shade or at night it will be very cold.

Think cold. remember the Grand Canyon rims are 7000 and 8000 feet above sea level. Yosemite, in the valley is 4000 feet and other accessible areas range up to over 8000. Cold.

In addition to the layers that other people suggested, bring boots, sunscreen, and either sunglasses or a hat.

Description setting of Colorado? -

Please give a description setting of Colorado in the winter. Use the 5 senses (see, smell, taste, touch,hear)Make it a cold day. this is for a short story and i need help describing the setting.

See the mountainsSmell hot chocolateTastes like snowFeels like you re freezing your butt offYou hear animals hibernatinngI was trying to be creative

Closest pleace to see snow!!? -

i live in west covina CA, i kinda want to take a drive and see snow, wheres the fastest and closest place i could find snow right now?

probably mammoth/bishop in the sierra nevadas is the closest fresh snowfall at this point in time. it is approx 6 hours from WC. mt. baldy would definitely be the closest to you after a cold storm.

I don t know if there is snow there yet, but certainly this winter there will be snow in the San Bernardino Range. There are ski resorts at Big Bear.Heavenly at South Lake Tahoe is currently reporting snow.

Don t think there is much snow anywhere near you atm... they usually mention it on the news when there is...
