Vaughn, New Mexico.
Snow drifts and patches still left over from a storm that across the area a week ago. These snow fences in the Vaughn area have been up for as long as I can remember. And that's at least fifty years. They were erected to help reduce the deep snow drifting that occurs in this area along the north-south orientated US Hwy 285. Strong westerly winds occurring after a storm create huge drifts that sometimes blocks traffic.
