Last weekend I saw these worms crawling over the wall of a snow cave. I thought they were the "ice worms" I had just heard about last Tuesday, but they're not this glacier ice worm, Mesenchytraeus solifugus -- those are obligately glaciericolous, and too small.
Also a spider, from (and returned to) a hemlock buried under eight feet of snow. And a mouse was sighted in a snow cave.

Sometimes I read my comments over and am not so sure I should post them.
