The tender, sculpturesque, immaculate, warming, fertilizing snow.


"A snow-covered plain is the face of death; yet snow is but the mask of the life-giving rain; it, too, is the friend of man, - the tender, sculpturesque, immaculate, warming, fertilizing snow."

John Burroughs
(friend of John Muir)
