I’ve heard some folks lamenting the fact that we haven’t had much snow this season, so here are a few historic photos from the Fort Collins Local History Archive to get you in that wintery mood.
A winter wonder-yard at 618 South Grant Street, 1988.
Rocky Mountain Ski Club on a madcap excursion near the Brynwood Hotel in Estes Park, circa 1930.
Don Alexander inspects some impressive icicles at the Laramie-Poudre River Tunnel, 1920s.
Members of the Hartshorn family enjoy a ride in a one-horse open sleigh through the streets of Fort Collins in 1937.
And finally, a cautionary photo from 1966 for those of you who drive convertibles in the wintertime…
Aren’t you ready for a nice cup of hot cocoa now?
