some pics of the Coast Range from my house




These are two pictures of the snow-covered Coast Range mountains that I took from my house this morning. The Coast Ranges range in elevation from 3000 to 7000 feet and run along the west side of the Sacramento Valley. On clear days (and some not so clear days, as evidenced by these pictures) I can see nearly the entire length of this chain of mountains from my house. My back porch is oriented to the west, and on most summer evenings my hubby and I sit on the porch and watch the sun set behind these mountains. At the bottoms of the pictures you can barely see the city of Chico and all of its trees. Northern California is so beautiful!
