Blizz'd in
An updated copy from an old 1966 slide. We did our surveying work at Mt Twintops, but then we were shut down for several days by a blizzard (generally just called a "blizz") with strong winds and zero visibility from drifting snow. This was taken in near whiteout conditions at the end, when the wind and snow had eased and we were preparing to move again.
The central bulldozer is hooked to a preheater to warm the engine before being started. The preheater is the orange box containing a small engine running a fan and petrol heater and connected by the large curly pipe to the tent arrangement covering the bulldozer's engine,. Before moving, of course, it also was necessary to dig out all the sleds and other equipment buried in snow drifts. Best viewed large.

Annalia S. has replied to Xata clubXata club has replied to Annalia S.Problem is that we are a poor country and do not have the helps people receive in other countries like Germany, Holland, France, UK... and many rely on charity to eat.
But maybe the same in Italy...
Where I am there is no problem. My house in the serra is in an isolated hamlet, I have nature at my doorstep so no mask, no restriction, I can go hike for hours. My apartment at the sea... the village is deserted as there are no tourists, no workers either. I can go out for a couple of hours with my little dog without seeing a soul... it is weird but safe.
The only risky place would be the supermarket, but as I have fruits and vegetable from gardens I don't often need to go to one, let's say each 3 weeks and I choose the hour when it is almost empty, that is lunchtime.
As I take care of a vulnerable old person since 2018 who lives in the serra I have a permission to circulate, just have the doc file in my car to present to police if they stop me.
I guess in the middle of all this I am privileged...

Have a great new week, and please stay safe and well ;-)
