My submission for the "Icy Landscapes" challenge for August 4, 2023. Loved working on this one, because I am absolutely at home in the mountains and I had so many ideas I wanted to try, and it provided me inspiration for future works. This is what I settled on however, because it very much reminded me of winter in the Sierra Nevada mountains. Anyone who has driven down 395 in California knows how crazy winter can be there, and how most of the mountain passes get completely snowed over and closed. Hopefully you all enjoy this winter wonderland!
Edit: And apparently people did enjoy this! Thank you everyone for putting this work in the top 20%!! 🤩
