Many North Dakotans in certain regions are currently seeing the first snow of the season. A lot of people have mixed feelings about the snow. On one hand, it’s cold and a pain to deal with, but on the other hand, it brings back memories of fun childhood activities that were only possible with snow. Not only that, but it can also be beautiful. No matter how much you may be dreading the snow, you can’t deny that at times it looks absolutely beautiful here.
Here are 11 examples of those times, when the snowfall resulted in a regular landscape turned gorgeous:
