This one is a little different than my usual recordings. I normally make recordings that are farther from civilization, but I thought this sounded nice, so I'm sharing it with you. I hope you like it! I recorded this while walking in the fresh snow from my house in the small town of McCloud out into the forest and back. It was snowing when I left my house, then it turned to a rain and snow mix on my way back home. The sounds of the small town fade into the distance as I walk nearly two miles into the forest, then pick up as I return. Wet and heavy snow was falling from the branches and melting out of the trees, and sound a bit like rain as I pass near and under them, with drops of water occasionally hitting the brim of my hat. I did my best to keep a slow pace in the wet and heavy snow so I wouldn't have to breathe too hard, as walking in this kind of snow can be pretty tiring.  I recommend listening to this recording with a headphones.  A lot of time, effort, and work goes into gathering these recordings for you, and I can really use your help.
