They look a little like snow covered hay rolls, but they are not.

Basically, cylindrical snowballs, right?
Wow. I love it when freaky stuff happens.

Those pictures are from a mile away and they're sixty five feet high. If you look closely you can see cows and sheep embedded in them.

Most of them are 18 inches to two feet in diameter.

Those are small cows and sheep that I see embedded in them.

Makes me want to be there instead of in this 100+ degree hell we're in down here. Looks refreshing.

Very cool. Reminds me of that rolled up hay or straw or whatever it is...when I worked at the produce farm in the market some guy asked me how much one of those rolls weighed. I'm like "how the hell should I know?" No, not really, I only thought that.

A 5 ft hay roll should weigh about 1,000 lbs.

Dang. Wish the Cellar had existed in 1981, or at the very least that I knew Bruce.
That's funny, though, I might have told the guy, these days "I don't know, I'll google it later."

How come so many weird things happen in Idaho?
Hemingway, separatists, my own private...now this. Makes you think.

Apologies to Bri and Hemingway, but snow rollers happen in lots of places.

Here in KY, we don't roll our snow. We roll our dope, though, we've been known to do that on occasion. Our snow, now, we line that up in big fat slobberknockers on a large mirr---oh, wait, wait, nevermind.

I wish we could get enough snow to roll down here. It's once in a blue moon.
