Evening before the snowstorm

That's what you see when you go to bed. You better remember where you parked your car.

Morning after the snowstorm

And that's what you wake up to. Time to go dig up your car...

Morning after the snowstorm

...if you can get out of the building.

Morning after the snowstorm

By the way, that's a five-story building.

A day after the snowstorm

You may have dug up you car, but the roads are still under a couple meters of snow. You're going on foot, buddy.

Couple days after the snowstorm

By now most roads should be cleared out.

Couple days after the snowstorm

You should be carefull and patient when navigating this labyrinth. There's no room for another car, so it's likely you would have to drive in and out several times to let other drivers pass by.

Couple days after the snowstorm

No sidewalks either. You have to press your back to the snow wall to let a vehicle pass.

About an hour drive from town

There's a big mountain crest which messes up the winds. This makes the clouds pour down all snow they have inside them.

About an hour drive from town

That's not your regular tractor, that's a huge one. This walls can get up to 8 meters (~26 feet) high.

Early spring

All this snow has to melt one day.

Early spring

That's when all the roads become a river for a week o so.

Early spring

Nope, no sidewalks either. You either go by bus, or stay at home.

Early spring

There is no public transport except buses. They are people's only hope.

The end

There's a picture of a random cute girl for you. Thank you for your attention.
