The destructive power of snow

Too much of good thing can plan havoc on other elements and this is precisely what this winter has accomplished. 

Too much snow can be fun but can also be equally destructive, at least that is what we are seeing everyday as the white cover recedes and expose some of it impressive damage. And this is before the big snow melt happens and threaten flooding under all possible forms. 

Here's a gallery of what we’ve been able to see in recent weeks and up to this day, and of course there still could be surprises... 

Collapsed roof, Park Avenue 

Partially crushed chairlift garage roof

Overturned bridge

Broken fence elements (6 in x 6 in)

There's also this unlucky deer carcass pushed away by the snowplow, that appear yesterday as a snowbank melted (photo not shown)
