Snow in paradise! A rare winter storm blanketed Hawaii’s tallest peaks — Mauna Loa and Mauna Kea — with up to 10 inches of snow this week. Fall storms in Death Valley have brought more rain in three months than the national park typically receives in an entire year. A man in Yellowstone was seen approaching a pack of at least five wolves in Yellowstone National Park. It's that time of year once again!
